This very nice center seam face doll with ears and naïve painted face and hair. She has a gracefulness about her. Her arms are created with a curve, she has nicely sloped shoulders that gives her a look of the proper Bostonian. She is cotton stuffed with a little give. She is jointed at the shoulders, hips and knees. Her undergarments are quite lovely. Her chemise has tape as garters that are holding up her stockings. She has pantaloons and a lovely petticoat, a cotton dress and a newly made, but with antique fabrics, over skirt. She has a stitching from her neck to her nose where the fabric is weak and has been stitched to keep it in place. She is a very nice example of an more sophisticated antique cloth doll with a folk art appeal.
