    Picked up a few dolls 2 days ago, this one seems to be hand made and face painted, all cloth. Where these dolls folk art and or made in the US ? Looks like something hung on mouth.

    Thank You

      Very nice boudoir doll many were made in France . Some more elaborate than others . Like real eylashes. Always heavy make up . The one thing on your doll I need to see is close up of feet . And clothes . Some were made from mask faces and a pattern for body most are factory made and very deco looking as they had high popularity in 1920-40s .

      These were not toys they sat on your bed as a decoration . They made versions that had a cigarette in mouth which are sought after .

      Hi Manikin, Thank You for the information. How do I add more photos ?


    4. Manikin Manikin, 9 years ago
      Go to edit and you have room for one more photo you can have 4 also can remove last photo as I think it is just a repair . So you will see all your photo's under edit and below you can see remove click that one and you can add 2 more

      I can't see hand does it have stitched fingers ?

      Manikin, new photos loaded, it looks like something used to be in her mouth, 2 small holes.
    8. Manikin Manikin, 9 years ago
      The hole for a cigarette is usually larger as the size that went in her mouth was about size of a real one . She looks factory made and is in very good condition . Would love to see your other one also .
    9. Manikin Manikin, 9 years ago
      The hole may have held a cigarette tied to mouth it is possible just never saw one done that way but you could say she might be a smoker in a description .

      Hi Manikin, Thank You for all that info, though the others I sold yesterday at swap meet, they where Alexander dolls 1960's.
