Beautiful all bisque all porcelain ball jointed doll. Back of head marked Kammer & Reinhardt and Simon Helbig. 117 and 58. PMM '86. From what doll experts have said she is a reproduction. A very nice flaw free all ball jointed porcelain doll. Her wedding dress is nicely made with tiny minute plastic snaps. Well done!! Of all my inquires, I can't seem to find another porcelain ball jointed doll. ?? Nice tight movement of limbs.
It was made by the person and painted by PMM her initials in 1986 . It is 100% reproduction and made in a doll making class where they give you a blank mold that was made from a original antique doll ,you paint it and you buy the body from them and make the clothes and buy the new synthetic wig,eyes ect . Ball jointed bodies on antique dolls are composition Never porcelain . Look at new reproduction dolls for a body like hers . The body is in style of a antique dolls but it is new ! Your title will only lead another person to think they have a antique doll it is not possibly a repro it is one .
This is a true antique doll and ball jointed body
