Description from the seller
Antique Porcelain Half Dolls – Collection of 6 – Dutch-Style Pincushion Doll Heads, Large Half Doll & Porcelain Legs – Circa 1920–1930
An attractive and unusual collection of six vintage porcelain doll pieces, including four charming Dutch-style pincushion doll heads, one larger colourful Dutch-style half doll and a beautifully modelled pair of porcelain legs.
Believed to date from the early 20th century, approximately 1920–1930, this collection offers a wonderful variety of finely painted facial features, colourful traditional headwear and delicate porcelain craftsmanship.
The four smaller heads are particularly appealing as a matching group, each displaying an individual expression and different coloured hat.
