Onbekend merk . - Doll - 1900-1910 - Germany

Very rare dolls as Siamese twins. They are connected at the chest, they often also have a third leg. They were made around 1900. Around that period these twins were used as attractions at fairs. The dolls have a papier-mâché head, glass eyes, and handmade clothing based on the fashion of children's clothes of the time. The hair has not withstood the test of time. Probably these dolls were played with, hence the damage to the feet. Arms and lower legs are made of composition.
The wooden cradle has the original upholstery with a patchwork bedspread.
The dolls are 48 cm, the bed is 65 x 22 cm.
These were made only around 1900. They are a real rarity and a special collector's item.
