![]() SOLD Wax doll, 17" tall Noted doll expert Jan Foulke appraised this was doll as either a Pierotti or a Montanari. See the Jan Foulke appraisal of Aug. 31, 2008, below. Click to see enlarged doll photos, submitted to Jan Foulke for appraisal. "This is a 17-inch antique doll with wax shoulder head, arms and legs made in London, England. It is similar to the dolls made by the Montanari and Pierotti families, who brought their wax making skills from Italy. Pierotti is credited with inventing the Royal Model Baby in the early 1850s. Queen Victoria had many babies during this period and interest in them spurred the production of luxury wax dolls, many done as portraits of the royal babies. The Royal Models were shown at the 1851 Exhibition and were very well received, though expensive. Other makers jumped on the successful bandwagon, so if the doll is not signed or labeled, it is difficult to know the maker. The dolls continued being made until around 1900. Although older children and even adults were depicted in wax dolls, your doll appears to be a baby because of her stout face and short hair. She should be dressed in an elaborate Christening ensemble with dress, underwear, hat and robe. Her condition seems to be excellent, although lacking some of her hair, and she doesn’t seem to have her real eyelashes and eyebrows. Perhaps they are worn away, or perhaps she is an economy model and didn’t have any." - Janice H. Foulke (August 31, 2008) |

SOLD Antique papier-mâché, shoulder-head doll PROFESSIONAL DOLL APPRAISAL "This antique doll is a large example of a German papier-mâché shoulder head model, also referred to as a Sonneberg papier-mâché or composition doll, circa 1890. There were quite a few factories in Thuringia that made this type of doll, and if the labels or stamps are missing from the back shoulders, it’s difficult to give an attribution, but she appears to have been produced by the doll and toy factory of Adolf Wislizenus of Waltershausen, a large company producing a wide variety of dolls which operated from 1851-1931. Most heads of this type have painted eyes, but this one has the very rare feature of glass inset paperweight eyes. From close examination of many photographs, it appears as though the head has been refinished and that the varnish has crackled and crazed. The antique cloth body is appropriate, but not the original factory body which would have had composition lower arms and legs with fancy molded boots and stockings. The tears on the cloth ankles can be patched and mended. There is some deterioration to the leather of one of the hands. She has lovely antique clothing and shoes which contribute to making her a totally charming doll." -Jan Foulke |

![]() SOLD Mark: "W" Bisque head and sawdust and glue body and limbs Glass eyes do not sleep Open mouth, teeth Painted brows and lashes Composition body: read Jan Foulke's appraisal on this historical doll from an old porcelain factory in Germany. Clothing: dress and pantaloon; socks; hand-stitched, red cape Dec. 20th, Jan Foulke Doll Appraisal: This cute little 9-inch antique German child doll with bisque head and composition body was made by Johann Walther. The elaborate mark on the back of her head is actually a fancy 'W' for 'Walther.'In 1900 he started a factory for dressed dolls and in 1908, a porcelain factory, Walther & Co., that later became Walther & Sohn. Both the doll and porcelain factories were in Oeslau near Coburg, Thuringia, Germany. The porcelain factory specialized in all-bisque dolls, doll heads, baby doll heads and bathing dolls. This was a time of great competition in the doll industry and companies were cutting costs by producing cheaper bodies, hence the “sawdust and glue” bodies and limbs , sometimes even with cardboard torsos. After all, they were covered by clothes, so if they weren't pretty it didn't really matter! Dolls like her in simple original factory dress and hat sold for 86 cents. She has dark glass stationary eyes, a cute little wig and a nice outfit. —Janice H. Foulke |

The mold of this bisque head dates from 1894, and is one of A.M.s earliest models. A doll similar to this was offered in the 1895 Butler Bros. catalogue as part of a novelty assortment of dolls dressed as American Indians and Chinese, “all in characteristic national costumes.” The head has a slight yellow tint to indicate an Oriental complexion. The matching five-piece composition body has red slippers with turned-up shoes to indicate an Oriental style. One shoe has some flaking and paint loss, but this is an easy repair for a doll restorer. The doll is all original with long black mohair wig and Chinese style costume including tunic, pants and jacket with hat. Of course, this is interesting to a collector because it is the German concept of a Chinese. German-made dolls with Oriental bisque heads are very desirable collectibles. This was made during a time in history when with the expansion of travel Europeans and Americans were becoming more attuned to the world and becoming more interested in native peoples. It would be a lovely addition to a collection of international dolls." Value on today’s market $550. -Janice H. Foulke Reference: Pg. 263 of 200 Years of Dolls (3rd Edition) by Dawn Herlocher |

![]() SOLD Bebe Tout en Bois Jan Foulke Appraisal: This is an antique doll called a "Bebe Tout en Bois" (Doll all of Wood), Ca. 1901-1914. She is made completely of wood with a fully jointed body, and a socket head with inset glass eyes. The doll was made in Germany for the French trade, hence the French name. Several companies made these types of dolls. This one is possibly by the Schilling doll factory in Sonneberg, and may have the Schilling "winged angel" trademark on her body, so you should check it. It's usually on the back shoulder. Or she may have a sticker from another factory. The bodies usually have some flaking, as the paint was applied directly to the wood, which creates an unstable condition, and this flaw is acceptable, but the face should be perfect, as her appears to be so. In fact, it is particularly nice with a sweet expression. Her clothing is made from vintage fabrics, but is not original to her, though it appears to have been on her for quite some time. |

APPRAISED AT $225-250 BY JANICE H. FOULKE, SEPTEMBER 3, 2008: |
![]() SOLD Unmarked VINTAGE FRENCH FASHION DOLL FROM THE 1960s Height: 16 inches Earrings Mohair wig Bisque swivel head Bisque shoulder plate Fine gusseted kid body: stitched fingers and toes Elegant clothing and hat Vintage leather shoes JAN FOULKE APPRAISAL: This 17-inch doll is a 1960s interpretation of an antique French fashion lady or poupée peau. During the 1960s a large group of dolls came from France into the United States, many through the old New York Doll Hospital. These dolls were supposedly found in a warehouse and dated from pre-World War I, but subsequent research revealed that this story was not true. They were made in the 1960s by a French lady and her son, and they were aged to look older. There were both bisque and china fashions in the French style, some marked with F.G. in Scroll or F + G, and some such as yours with an earlier style face were unmarked. Comparison with a genuine antique doll immediately reveals the differences: bisque too smooth, color too gray and orange, ears not well defined, piercing holes too small, glass eyes lacking depth and detail, wrong kind of pates, cheap coarse mohair wigs, new neck buttons, bodies not stiffly stuffed, and not carefully stitched, though some like yours were aged a carmel color. Value on today's market in perfect condition, fully dressed in new silk fashion gown and hat, undies, shoes and socks -- $450-550. - Janice H. Foulke |

Quote from buyer: She is everything I had hoped that she would be! She is an authentic Bleuette doll made between 1922-1933. I carefully snipped her clothing off to check her body....and to verify her markings. I love her..I'll leave great feedback and I am so very happy.
