The listing, *** TWO Gorgeous Antique Dolls!! *** FREE SHIPPING with GIN! has ended.
Circa 1940s-50s.
About 10.5" tall. Unmarked.
Both dolls are strung and have moveable arms and heads with sleep eyes. Both have mohair wigs and beautiful face paint. They could use a light cleaning.
One is dressed as a bride with blonde hair, green eyes, and a tattered veil. The dress is a bit dingy from age. (She kinds of reminds me of Marilyn Monroe.)
The other is dressed in a beautiful blue, white, and violet dress. The violet of the dress has faded with time. She has blue eyes and brown hair and wears a felt hat. (She looks a bit like a Southern Belle.)
Though not marked, but these are likely Duchess travel dolls, produced between the late 1940s to early 1950s. Common characteristics include non-removable clothing, sleep eyes, non jointed legs and hips, and molded shoes.
A sweet pair to add to your collection!
