Description :

A beautifully matched collection of five vintage bisque and porcelain half dolls, each hand-painted and sculpted in graceful Edwardian to early Art Deco style. Originally used as pincushion tops or vanity accessories, these elegant figures feature pastel palettes, expressive poses, and finely detailed features — a testament to early 20th-century craftsmanship.

Set Includes:

  • Blonde with green sash, marked Germany 8032 – approx. 4" (10 cm)

  • Brunette with blue comb, marked Germany 5826 – approx. 3" (7.5 cm)

  • Grey-haired lady in pink dress with rose, marked Germany 5386 – approx. 3.5" (9 cm)

  • Blonde with pink corset and brown sleeves, marked Foreign – approx. 3.25" (8.3 cm)

  • Brunette with mint-green hat and red bow – approx. 2.75" (7 cm)


Why It’s Special:

A cohesive and well-preserved set showcasing both German and Japanese export artistry. Ideal for collectors of vanity porcelain, sewing ephemera, or decorative arts — each figure tells a story of elegance and craftsmanship from a bygone era.
