AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This rare beauty was made in the second half of the 19th century in Germany by the company Johann Daniel Kestner.

Unmarked, some early models of dolls were not marked.

Unfortunately, her bisque head has several very thin hairline cracks that are not visible at first glance. They are older and otherwise the head holds well.
Fixed blue eyes.
Closed mouth.
New wig.
Original goatskin body, porcelain hands.
Old clothes.

The doll measures 50 cm.
