    This doll is a mystery to me. Buy in Buenos Aires, Argentina, has flirty glass eyes and open mouth with two teeth porcelain and retractable tongue, has no visible marks or stamps . Only in the neck a low relief with what appears to be a number, 10 , but it is almost unreadable , the body and the head appear to be pasta.
    Someone told me I could get to have German origin , and being kaolin . I do not know.
    ¿Could anyone help me with information about this piece? developed thanks!

      Your doll is composition or head maybe paper mache hard to tell by photo and it could be German but lip color is not one they used that I have seen . I think she was never imported because she would be marked by country that made her according to McKinley Act . I would not be surprised if she was made in your home country . If you pull up on head a bit it may say country under the number . Check and see ok . She is called a sleep eye doll not flirty . Flirty eyes move side to side as to follow you . Very nice condition
