A delicate glimpse into early 20th-century childhood, preserved in time. Antique German Bisque Head Doll – Marked “21 Germany” A charming antique German bisque head doll dating to the early 1900s, featuring classic craftsmanship and beautiful display presence. This piece was acquired from a loving doll collector’s estate, where it had been carefully displayed and appreciated for many years. The bisque head is marked “21 Germany” on the back of the neck and shows finely painted facial details, including softly blushed cheeks, defined brows, and an open mouth with visible teeth. The doll has fixed glass eyes (non-sleeping) that give it a lifelike expression. A vintage mohair-style wig remains in place and is styled beneath a delicate floral headpiece. She is dressed in a soft cream-toned outfit that appears to be original to the doll. The dress is fragile with visible aging consistent with antique textiles and has not been removed, helping preserve its integrity. The layered skirt, ribbon sash, and floral accents create a lovely period display look. The composition body features jointed limbs with visible wire connections, likely from age or prior restringing. The body shows typical antique wear, including surface crazing, finish wear, and discoloration-especially noticeable on the arms and hands. These condition details are clearly shown in the photos and are consistent with dolls of this age. The doll stands approximately 7 inches tall and presents beautifully as part of an antique display. Please review all photos carefully as they are part of the description.

From the Hamel estate comes this wonderful example of a blonde child by Alt Beck Gottschalck ABG from 1880 with exposed ears. There are no chips or cracks to her lovely head. She is on an antique cloth body with kid arms with individual fingers. There is age related damage to the fingers and hands. She is wearing antique bloomers, petticoat and chemise. She also has her original silk socks that are melting. Not sure if they could tenderly mended but they need to stay with her. She wears an appropriate style vintage red dress with antique lace and silk ribbons. I say vintage not antique dress because it is machine stitched with snaps to close in back. Please review all photos and ask questions.
