[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 2160806, member: 85"]Ok, dolls are not my area at all. This is a page of German half dolls, popular in the early 1900s. I know these are glazed, and your figurine is bisque. [URL]https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=german+half+dolls&FORM=HDRSC2[/URL] However, many of the half dolls were made by the German doll makers, some also made other porcelains, such as figurines. Look at their faces. Notice the way the eyes and mouths are painted. Some like this one is well done. Others not so well [IMG]https://th.bing.com/th/id/OIP.ASrDSOd_gc-wYzR9ON3mlAHaJ4?w=189&h=252&c=7&o=5&pid=1.7[/IMG] That's why I was asking Joy if she knew who was still making in the mid 1900s. Many of the doll makers started back in the early 1800s. Heubach, Goebel, are two that I'm aware of.[/QUOTE]
