French Cloth Art Doll, Circa 1920s
French Cloth Art Doll, Circa 1920s
Here we have a beautiful and substantially sized child made by, we believe, the French firm Venus, circa 1920s. Features include a wonderfully modeled and painted head with full, blushed cheeks, side glancing brown-painted eyes with delightful powder blue shading, and rose hued lips with a slight gloss (minor rub to nose.) Her face is framed by a titian mohair wig in a sweet, cropped style and topped with a cloche hat in vivid lime green felt with a turned back coral pink brim.
On a firmly stuffed felt body with jointed arms and legs, she wears a classic dress in lime green felt with coral pink piping and a floral detail at the waist (legs do present scattered discoloration and pilling to felt.) Pink felt shoes and cream stockings complete her presentation.
Measures: 24 1/2” tall
