    Description

    Very Beautiful 15" Reproduction  Doll and very nice Green dress with a lovely hat by artist Betty Louise Almstrom.
    I think he head is porcelain or bisque and I think the body, arms and legs are paper mache.  The head, body , arms and legs are all painted the same color so I think it is a little confusing for the material.  I included a picture of the arms where they hook into the body.  See pictures. I do not know the age or name of this doll but she is very pretty.
    I am not sure of the material the doll is made of.  I thought the material was composition because that is what it looks like but now I think the material is Paper Mache.  It is all the same material for the head and body and limbs.  I had  experienced person check the doll and they said it was paper mache.  It is breakable similar to ceramic and will break if dropped.  I did find a  shop online that sells doll bodies that look similar to this using pourable paper mache.  The company I found online is "Kewpie & Me" Paper Mache doll bodies.  I do not think this is one of their dolls, just showing this to help ID the material this doll is made of.
    Please as questions so you will be pleased with your doll purchase.
    I bought a large doll collection from a estate sale and her daughter said her mother collected and made dolls and doll clothes for many years.  This is one of her hand painted doll.  She also made clothes for her dolls.
    This is a nicely strung doll, moves at the head, arms and legs.
    Hand painted face and Brown glass eyes.  She has a wig that is in nice but messy condition but it is not glued on.  I did glue on the cover for the head after I took the picture.  I did take a front and back picture of her hair loose without the hair net but will ship her with her hair net on.
    I think that the artist made the dress too.  Item includes the doll, dress, hat, tights and shoes.
    This is a vintage doll so she will have some wear on her and small scratches but I do not see any damage to the doll.  There are a  few small dirt marks on the dress, I did not wash it.  The wig is a little messy.
    The item includes the new doll stand, doll, dress, tights, shoes, hat and new hair net.
