Antique NIPPON CHINA HEAD DOLL 1900s Hertwig Style Bisque Porcelain Japan Toy
Item History & Price
Antique NIPPON? DOLL Bisque Porcelainin Pink Dress from JapanCirca 1900
This is a very old doll! I believe it is a Nippon doll from Japan copying a German Hertwig style, circa 1900. If you see the last photo, it shows a Hertwig catalog with a similar head. The back of the body had a hole where the leg meets the body, which I sewed up, but it is still very fragile and wants to tear or leak sawdust. Listing is for doll and does not include other items. She is somewhere between 3''... and 4'' ~ A measuring stick is shown in the photos. I am selling another one separately which is about 6 1/2'' or 7'' and similar! (See last photo!) Please see photos carefully and ask questions if needed. I am selling many beautiful artisan, antique and vintage dolls and dollhouse items, and I DO combine shipping!
My house burned down in a Californiawildfire with no insurance. I lost a large inventory of clothing and antiques Ihad painstakingly repaired and modeled for my ebay store, OutofthisWorldVintage. Proceeds go to helping me rebuild. The wildfires werecaused by an arsonist and destroyed about 1500 homes in Lake County, CA. Sincethen, my 78 year-old stepdad lost his home in Paradise, with no insurance, andis now homeless, so I am also trying to help him. I also have a go fund me pagewith more of my story, called jennyhelp. Thanks for your support!
