Buyer's Premium:

A contemporary collector’s doll presented in a Victorian-style aesthetic. The doll is constructed with a bisque porcelain head and hands upon a soft filled body. The head features fixed brown glass or acrylic eyes with applied upper eyelashes and a painted mouth. The auburn synthetic wig is styled in an elaborate period fashion with a structured bun and ringlets. The doll is dressed in a detailed ensemble including a black velvet-effect hat with beaded gold-toned trim, a salmon-red satin-effect bodice with black lace-edged cuffs and collar, a full black velvet-effect skirt, and a large black tulle shawl. No maker’s marks or labels are visible in the provided images. This piece represents the late 20th-century trend for large-scale collector dolls, similar to those found in the Timeless or Sabrina collections.
Height: 30 inches.
