18” All-original Fancy molded Hair PARIAN c.1870s
This lovely Parian lady
is in excellent all-original condition. She has intricately rolled
café au lait deeply modeled hair with a blue band across the front, a
long patrician nose, pierced ears, two sew-holes each side of
shoulders, incised “18”. Watery blue eyes with red & black lid lines,
café au lait brows, blushed cheeks and a tiny mouth gives her a quiet
and somber countenance. Her cloth body is solidly stuffed with no
leaks, stitch-jointed at shoulders, knees and hips so she sits well.
Bisque lower arms are slightly mismatched but pleasing (two fingertips
chipped on left hand underside so not conspicuous). The deep brown
velvet coat has brown porcelain buttons down the front and blue wool
lining. Her skirt matches with rows of brown ribbon beading.
Underneath are a chemise, pantaloons and flannel petticoat. This is a
fine example of German sculpting.
$895.00
