This doll looks super old! I great condition though. Arms and Legs seem to be movable and the doll is likely made out of paper with a type of panty hose on the body for color, Her hair seems to be real. Her face has been painted on and her dress is still in great condition.
Made in Japan called a " Pose doll " . These wonderful wide eye dolls like the Keane eyes were made mostly by Bradley co. They were dressed in modern clothes outside of Japan culture more to what was fashionable on USA . They are highly collectible in today's market depending on clothes and style . Dating 1960's -70s at their peak of popularity

You can see from some of photo's yours is in her original chair and her legs should be posed crossed at ankles and to the side of her like a lady :-)
