PRETTY IN PINK ORIGINAL ANTIQUE HANDWERCK/HALBIG DOLL

Description

This petite, cabinet sized Heinrich Handwerck/Simon & Halbig doll is just a treat for the eyes. She has just a dreamy look to her, with those gorgeous deep chocolate brown eyes and long hair lashes. They enhance her upper and lower slant style painted lashes as well. This darling has almost all of her original hair eyebrows, which is amazing for her age! Her creamy, rosy bisque face has only one tiny rub to the left cheek. Her eyes must have been reset along the way because they are no longer sleepers. There are no hairlines to the head and her back of neck is incised as follows-HEINRICH HANDWERCK/SIMON & HALBIG/GERMANY. There is incised a 0 1/2 at the base of her back neck. She has a beautiful, antique auburn wig which I feel is hers. The ears are pierced. The body of this little girl is all original to her. It has its beautiful, aged patina to it and is stamped in red on the backside. Please view pictures. Accordingly, view all pictures and read full description. These are antique dolls and you will never find complete perfection. This girl comes close though for her age. All of her dainty little fingers and toes are in place and have only some slight rubs to the tips.
Our little girl is a true cream puff, between her looks and her sweet pink outfit. The dress is of pink vintage cotton fabric, with lovely greenish/blue flowers running through it. It fits beautifully. There is very pretty crochet lace at the collar, sleeves and double row at hem. She also wears  a gorgeous  one piece age stained antique underwear/pantaloons, with sweet delicate lace trim. There is a very pretty vintage/antique half slip with edging at hem. Her socks are simple vintage white cotton and the shoes are old oilcloth with loose soles. These can be glued or replaced. Her outfit ends with an antique, cloche style hat in a mixture of blue and white (some fading to this piece). This doll is sure to bring her new owner much joy. Just gazing at that face is soothing. Please feel free to ask any questions. Her BIN is fair for such a beautiful cabinet doll or please make your best offer. Thanks for looking!
