21" Antique Dome-head, Closed-mouth, Early Kestner Doll In Dark Mint Dress17

Description: This is an early Kestner, dome-head, closed mouth, turned head doll. I have examined her head thoroughly and it seems as though she has been to the doll hospital at some point and has been repaired and repainted professionally. The head is mounted on what seems to be her a newer cloth body with bisque arms that have intact fingers on both hands.She came to me with dangling arms, so the lighter muslin arms are a result of my replacing the frayed arms that she had with new ones. She is wearing pantalettes with lace-trimmings that are stacked up her legs almost like a layer cake. She also wears a white half slip that is the length of the dress. A white crinoline is half the length of dress's skirt. She wears black stockings and black patent leather shoes on her feet. The dress is made of a dark mint green silky material with a vertical black strip through it. It has an empire waist and a gathered neckline. Black lace trims the bottom of the dress and the cuffs of the sleeves and long velvet and lace ties from the what seems to be the center of the dress stream down the front. A large black satin bustle is attached separately on the back of the dress and it is stuffed in the upper portion with fiber fill, puffing it out, with little bows on either side. A structured dark green velvet bonnet graces the doll's red mohair curls and the black velvet ribbons tie under her chin. She makes quite a pretty picture indeed!
