    Please note I am not a doll expert or a doll dealer - I am selling some of the dolls I collected over the years - so please ask all questions prior to bidding.
    Large Antique China Head Doll w matching Victorian box and a crotched purse 22"
    She has a beautiful china head and shoulders with a cloth body that has wide hips.
    Her China head is in excellent condition except for some rubs of the black paint on her hair.
    I could not undress her to photo the china part because her dress is sewn on but I was able to move the material around and see that there are no cracks or chips or repairs on it.
    Her arms from the elbows to the hands are leather with  her hands having  individual stitched fingers.  Her body is in nice condition also except the upper part of her left arm is missing and was replaced with some rolled up cloth.  The rest of her arm and body is good though.
    I believe she is wearing her original dress, slip and matching pantaloons.  The dress and pantaloons are trimmed in a beautiful very delicate lace.  The dress has some stains and in one area it has some holes in it.  Her feet are in good condition and the doll has no odors but as can be seen from the photos - the tips of her socks have worn away.
    AS stated her dress is sewn on but her sleeves were undone at some point ( probably to fix the arm and needs to be sewn back on.
    She is wearing a faux pearl necklace and comes with an antique crotched doll purse and a Victorian era cardboard box with the picture of a girl on top that appears to be wearing a similar outfit to the doll.  A lovely set.
