    Hello, this doll has head and hands of what seems to be composition, with a plush that covers it. The body is soft cloth, and the hair looks mohair. I will be very grateful if someone can help me to reveal the origin of the doll, since it has no visible mark. It measures 64 cm tall. It was acquired in Buenos Aires, at an auction.
    Thank you!

      Called a boudoir doll made to sit on a bed . She is a sought after of the smoker girls made. These were made by many companies from France, Italy. Germany among the most often found . Yours has a Velveteen body which has been attributed to German made she has teeth showing more unusual , This were popular in 1920's and 30's . Very nice ! Maker are rarely known unless it was a Lenci and she is not by them. A real treasure

      Thanks for your help manikin, you're right, for me it's also a treasure!
      I was looking at the link you so kindly left, and I found some that have a certain resemblance to the one I have at home. It's just an observation, the truth that I have not seen these dolls I did not know. I pass the links where I saw some similar, perhaps by the hands and the smile. Thanks again!
