Description: Rare 50s Wooden Paquita Doll French Basque Girl with Basket with Tag I am pleased to offer a rare doll made by the Illinois doll artist, Paquita Stevens. In 1943, Mrs. Stevens filed for an Illinois patent for her carved wooden dolls. Paquita dolls were carved from a solid block of wood and painted and clothed in great detail. She produced them from the 1940’s through the 1960’s.This Paquita doll is a French Basque girl with a basket. She is 8.5” tall. Her black braided hair is made of wool. Her carved face is painted with side glancing eyes. She is wearing her national costume and has flat gray leather shoes. She has his original tag which reads, “A PAQUITA DOLL/Trade mark Reg. U.S. Pat. Off” on one side. On the other is written, "French Basque" created by (signature) Paquita". No date is provided but she was likely made in the 1950’s.vintage doll in great condition - mostly dusty. Her dress is not as fresh as it used to be but still great for 70 year old girl. The bottom of the basket was a little detached and I glued it back. NOTE: Please refer to photos for more detailed condition. They are part of the description.
