Very unusual to find a black cloth doll that is truly a baby doll. She has the chubby body and bent legs and is wearing a romper two piece play outfit. She has a somewhat formed face with a raised nose and rounded chin. She has bead eyes with white accents painted on. She has the astrakhan hair with a cute tie around her head that goes with her two piece play suit. Her legs were attached like her arms by being sewn on and at some later date someone updated her legs so she would sit more easily is my guess and used a technique done in the 1920s-30's. She is firmly stuffed with cotton, her hands have small separate thumbs. She is 15" tall and circa 1890-1900. She is a darling doll.
