    Description

    Wonderful and extremely hard to find, 13 1/2" tall,
    antique bisque sockethead
    ,
    ASIAN
    or
    ORIENTAL
    female doll, circa
    1905
    , by
    Schoenau Hoffmeister, Germany
    . She is incised:
    4900 over S (star)
    H
    on the back of her head and has inset,
    almond shaped and slanted, dark brown glass eyes
    with finely painted upper and lower eyelashes as well as quizzical, slanted eyebrows, an open mouth with row of tiny teeth, molded high cheek bones and lovely complexion slightly blushed cheeks. She has a lovely, thick, dark brown, human hair wig and original
    multi-jointed,
    tinted wood and composition body with original paint finish
    She wears a beautiful antique cream silk, two-piece, fully lined, embroidered Chinese silk outfit with lots of hand embroidered details and thread covered, side buttons.
    She is in excellent condition with no cracks or hairlines, no chips or damages, no fading and no stains and no odors as she is from a smoke free home. She will surely be the highlight of any antique doll collection as this model seldom becomes available for sale.
