Another doll recently acquired. He appears to be filled with saw dust. He is 9" tall and is marked with #114 11/0 N on the back of her neck. I have no idea how old he is. Any history to be shared is appreciated.
Your doll is German and made of bisque with a commercially made sawdust-filled body and bisque limbs, made by Rauenstein Porzellanfabrik as per the markings. Hairstyle indicates a doll made around the 1880''s anywhere up to around 1930. I'd probably place the doll, personally, at around 1900 or so. Please note that any damage, chips or cracking to the shoulder plate immediately affects value. The doll has a nice little face, typical of the era.
Thank you chinaheads!!! Any idea of its value? There is no cracking to the shoulder plate. Have a wonderful day!
