A wonderful fine homespun linen doll with watercolor/ink drawn features and blue eyes to die for. The drawing of her eyelashes is so tiny I needed a magnifying glass to see them. She is 14” tall, body is all original and firmly stuffed with cotton. Her legs are jointed, feet nicely formed, and her hands have stitched defined fingers. Condition is great other than some age related staining on her face. At some point she must have had shoes sewn on to her feet, now all that remain of them are threads hanging off. There is no evidence that she ever had hair. She is circa 1880, her face is nicer than nice.
P.S. Even though she looks imposing, remember she is a small doll.
