He is really cute, but not very old. Sadly these porcelain dolls are made by so many people, and companies it's hard to find their origins. I collect older dolls, and in my collection I have a couple of the newer ones. I know they aren't worth much but they were gifts and they mean the world to me, and they have a charm of their own.
Hi,
I just took possesion of about 600 ceramic molds. And, of course, like you, I looked for the doll molds first. One piece of casted greenware head caught my attention, because it was a step up from the rest. It is printed Old Irish Lic. by Lou Henri. I don't have any of the other molds that go with the head, but I'm still looking. I can, however, make a mold from the casted head I have.
