This doll has been in my display case for more than 25 years. I know that she is a Lenci, but I don't know any more about her than that.
She is over 17" tall (the legs are different lengths so she could be 17.5" or 18", depending on which leg you measure.) She came with a handmade organza dress which, I have been told, is not her original clothing. She has no tags or identifying marks.
She has a lovely wig. She is reasonably clean but has a few small worn spots. I would love to know if she belongs to a particular series and when she might have been made.
Thank you for any insights you can offer!
I am not sure she is a Lenci or a look a like , Not signed on bottom of feet , can't see close up of face painting or hands , stitching on back of head ? Please show me dress also she came in . Welcome to CW
Hello Mrs Preck, the head looks to be Lenci.Are her arms and legs replacements?:)
Without more photo's impossible to ID head as a Lenci or a Look a Like .
Here are a few new photos of my Lenci girl. I don't believe that her arms and legs are replacements - but I don't know that for a fact. She was already old when a friend found her in an estate sale and brought her to me. :) Thank you for your expertise and for your interest in helping me identify her! (Note: her hair actually lies down beautifully in the back but I was looking for other stitching or marks to photograph there.)
I believe your doll is a look a like . Not a Lenci :-(
Thank you, Manikin!
