<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sassafras, post: 9805591, member: 6320&quot;]She&#039;s a sweet little half doll. These were all the rage in the 1900s-1920s. You find them with lots of different kinds of bases including pincushions, whisk brooms, and solid bases (to be displayed), tea cozies, etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>Most of them were manufactured in Germany and their quality varies widely. You find them with their arms extended (commonly known as arms away), jointed at the shoulders, with flowers or lace attached....the list goes on and on. The more elaborate, the more desirable, and the most expensive. </p><p><br /></p><p>Yours appears to be from the later period of production. She&#039;s a &quot;common&quot;, meaning that her arms are held close to the body and her modeling is simple. The painting is done with a limited color palette and is not done with a finessed hand, but rather a hand aimed at quick production. We don&#039;t give valuations here, but you can check the &quot;sold&quot; listings on eBay for a value. Hope that helps! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
