Description
Up for your consideration is a 24” Hertel & Schwab doll. I am downsizing my collection and wish to find her a new home.She has a bisque socket head on a composition and wooden ball-jointed body. She has all fingers and toes. No cracks, hairlines, or chips to the bisque head. She is in very good antique condition with the usual body paint discoloration in spots and wear and tear at the joints. The feet have the most wear. There is a dent in the left thigh, not sure what happened--that's how she came to me.
Her serene face is expertly painted with brush-stroked brows, accented nostrils and eye corners, gently blushed cheeks, and shaded lips with lip liner. She has brown glass, sleep eyes, applied upper hair lashes and painted lower lashes, open mouth, and four porcelain teeth. The brown synthetic mohair wig is a replacement as well as the pate.
She is nicely costumed in a home-sewn, drop waist, long sleeve pink dress accented with white laces and piping; a full slip & pantalets. Shoes are antique gold colored satin fabric doll shoes accented with a pink snap in the middle of the ankle strap and pink bow on the toes.
Marks: 136 / 11; Made in Germany.
