> Charming 11-inch early antique German wax-over-papier-mâché Sonneberg Taufling. This wonderful baby has a shoulder head with sweet round face, with a bald head. Some nails still in the scalp and glue indicate that at one time baby had a wig, so I’ve added a wisp of blonde mohair under her cap. She has blue glass sleeping eyes, pink cheeks, and an open mouth with 2 square cut upper and lower teeth. Wax finish on her face has a few nicks, but no cracks or chunks missing. There is some crazing on her shoulder plate and a crack running from her shoulder to the top of her head. The original taufling body has a papier-mâché torso and wood limbs with jointed wrists and ankles. It is in very good condition with just a couple of splits in the fabric of the arms. There is a voice box in the torso that no longer works. Baby is dressed in antique cotton shift and long slip, gown made from vintage fabric with nice detailing of tucks and wide eyelet lace trim at hem, and vintage cap. If you like these charming early dolls, this one is priced right for you!
