I have this doll and she is marked with "Made in Germany Floradora". She is not marked with a mold number that I can see. Is she an authentic German Floradora?

Your doll is made in Germany by Armand Marseille and was named Floradora dating early 1900's . She is rather common one to find and yes her head is a true antique I can't see her body to tell about that . She has a replaced wig which is not correct for her , She should have a Mohair wig or human hair not synthetic and of coarse her clothes are newer made in the style of antique bisque dolls. Although She was dressed originally in a much plainer dress. They did not have a mold number just a name .
Thank you for this information. What would her value be?
Does she have a fully ball jointed body or a kid leather body ?
Your mystery about her is solved ,and welcome to CW
The value is not high since they are common to find in today's market and condition not being original hair and clothes detracts from value . Her head can have no chips or damage and type of body is important .
Price range is wide
