Bought on Ebay. Found quite a few similar faced dolls online. mostly bisque flapper Kewpie-like dolls. I was only able to find one with the same marking number on Etsy. The “Japan” marking on the inside is stamped not engraved
Trying to find the approximate decade she was made around!

Hi your doll very much in style of the Japan dolls often referred to as Carnival dolls., Kewpie like and Betty Boop . I have heard them called all those names but alas she has no real name Dates from around 1920-30's . Very cute :-)
