Stunning 7” Rare Antique German Bisque Mignonette Doll In Fine Outfit
Item History & Price
Wonderful tiny 7" antique bisque head and composition body doll. She is marked "Made in Germany and I think - Gebruder Kuhnlenz 18/0" it's hard to read. Her bisque head has no hairlines or cracks, but a factory notch or small fleabite on the inside top rim. The inside of her head is clean and its tiny working parts look perfect. She has dark blue glass sleep eyes that open and close smoothly with intact eye wax and delicate painted lashes, and 4 impossibly miniatur...e teeth! There are a couple of pin sized dots from the porcelain firing that look like beauty marks. Her composition body has it's nice original finish color with some small rubs just on her finger tips, and a couple of old clean repairs to both feet, which could easily be hidden with a speck of paint. She is dressed in a fabulous miniature antique outfit with a fully lined real fur collar green velvet coat!.that fits her perfectly. I've never seen another like it. She has a lovely high quality replacement mohair wig that will ship loose so the inside of the head can be carefully packed. I will also send her original wig (that is not in great looking condition) and hard dome fitted wig cap.The original cap is in very good condition to mount her wig on. She is stunning displayed!
The doll will be very carefully packaged to protect the delicate bisque and eye mechanism and fully insured. To avoid excess handling of these delicate antiques I don't offer returns. So please look closely at the photos and feel free to ask me any questions.
