Wonderful ! These are called Queen Anne Dolls . Carved Wood and date from early 1700's to early 1800's . These dolls are one of the most often seen reproductions of the original dolls so I can not tell from your photo which she is real antique or reproduction . I need a close up of face and also see part of body . The clothes are usually replaced on true Queen Anne dolls but can be found in original clothes which were elaborate and often silk which deteriorates . I will await close up photo's but in mean time you can look at some Queen Anne dolls that are highly collectible and expensive .

Will get a photo up asap thanks manikin
ok good also you can remove 2 more of the same photo . Show me under her dress her legs and also close up of dress which I am sure is not original if she is a true early Queen anne . Maybe a photo of the cap close up .
Photo has been uploaded can't do anymore since doll is in attic now so I can't take it down many thanks
Thank you but close up of face is to small and is not clear :-( and dress also is not clear but it appears to be be a replacement or original to doll if she is a reproduction . I need a large clear photo of face and body . Thank you for trying :-)
If the doll is a original and in attic oh my ! not good place . Actually a attic or basement neither are good for dolls of any kind . But it can damage her dry out wood . I am leaning to it being a reproduction but if original she is a valuable doll .
