izannah walker cloth doll HELEN PRINGLE oil paint ANTIQUE REPRODUCTION LIFE SIZE - $500 - (Bridgeview, IL)
you will have to sign for package if you win. nothing else you see included. there is ONLY one doll. no stand. all other items are props. i am sorry, i do not know the year or date. this is a very VERY rare doll. she is hand made and hand painted by the famous new england artist...helen pringle! HUGE DOLL, just under 36"...with shoes she is near 36"..without she is about 35...she is life size so hard to hold and measure... magnificent eyes! beautiful ears, wonder 'second skin with lace!", a lot of long luscious curls, she is one of a kind and was custom made, PERSONALLY HAND SIGNED! AND A RARE giant SIZE!! she is overall very detailed and lovingly made! some of her dolls were much smaller...this one is like having a real child in your home. the notation written on her says that she personally dressed the doll. this one, she did not. doll has been redressed in more of a softer antique look. i do not know age off her poke bonnet. but her layers of the replacement clothing are genuine antique. hat and clothing do not fit perfectly, but it has the look of a victorian child and to me, go pefrfectly on this doll just as they are. has flaws, staining, wear and tear...none of which detract, and those flaws were why the outfit was chosen...to fit the period and style of izannah. shoes are gorgeous and quite old and brown. her flowers on her dress are from the late 1800's. because the doll is considered used, i will state: the doll itself shows some flaws....could be original flaws, could be from previous owner. YOU DECIDE :-) i have shown you many photos, if you need more, let me know...this is a big heavy doll...you may not have this chance to get her again...she is hard to part with! this is a rare opportunity to own a beautiful antique reproduction large izannah walker doll by an amazing artist! she was carefully made and she is exceptional and outstanding! she looks like an oil painting come to life!THIS IS AN AS IS SALE, NO REFUNDS AND NO RETURNS. Feel free to ask me…
