    My mom has this porcelain doll it has a broken foot. Does anyone know anything about dolls? Is there a different thread this should be on?

    Welcome 20GT! I don't know a lot about dolls myself but it would be helpful to know if it is marked. Usually marks are found on the back of the head or neck sometimes under the collar. If there is a breastplate in front that may also be a place to find marks. If there's a doll hospital in your area they may be able to tell you more about the doll and give you an estimate on fixing her broken foot. Hope this is helpful.

    Ok no markings behind her neck. But her hair is weirdly bald in the back. And her body is completely sewn cloth and no shoulders just a head. Legs are porcelain up to her knees.

    The spacing of the hair plugs is also very random, as if done by hand. I think a doll as mass produced as Walda would have a wig made by a machine
