Precious Antique 10" Early German Kestner Pouty CM Closed Mouth Doll

Description: She's been in my collection since 2010 and now it is time to pass her along to a new home. Approx. 10" tall, she is an early Kestner closed mouth pouty doll with that square face that is so loved. Plump cheeks! Her original blown glass sleep eyes were reset a long time ago somewhat crudely. Well defined ears and a lovely slightly smiling pouty mouth. Love those heavy feathered eyebrows. No damage, hairlines or restoration to her bisque head. There is a tiny mold flaw indention on her left lower cheek by mouth that you can see in the sideways picture of her face. She has her original Kestner plaster pate and what may be her original wig, albeit it is somewhat sparse. Her composition and wood body is in good antique condition with the original finish. Early straight wrists. A chipped area on back of her neck opening that can be seen in the pictures of her back. Otherwise, normal wear and tear one generally sees on these antique doll bodies. She is dressed in what she came to me in. An absolutely gorgeous antique net lace dress over a turquoise blue attached underdress. Three layers of net lace on her dress bottom. Puffed sleeves with gathering at the bottom to form a ruffled bottom sleeve. She also has a wonderful antique net lace hat bestowed with loads of fabric flowers. Her shoes are artisan made replacements and she has on antique crochet socks and antique slip. All ready to display ~ she is wonderful. Shipping includes signature confirm and insurance.
