Beautiful Antique Boudoir Doll Head.
✦ An enchanting piece of Art Deco history ✦
A beautiful and rare head of an antique boudoir doll from the 1920s–1930s — the Roaring Twenties in its most theatrical form. This type of doll, also known as a salon doll or "bed doll," was placed on the bed or chaise longue in French and Spanish boudoirs in the 1920s as a fashionable showpiece. Not a toy, but a work of art.
This head tells the story of Pierrot — the melancholic, moonlit lover from the commedia dell'arte. With her hand-painted, sideways-looking eyes, cherry-red cupid lips, and soft lavender eyeshadow, she is the personification of Art Deco glamour. Details:
✦ Period: ca. 1920–1930 (Art Deco)
✦ Style: Boudoir doll / Pierrot / salon doll
✦ Head material: composition / papier-mâché
✦ Original mohair wig in soft ivory blonde
✦ Original white lace ruffle collar (Pierrot style) — rare that this is still present!
✦ Fully hand-painted facial details
✦ Dimensions: +/- 11 cm height, 8 cm width.
Condition:
Beautiful vintage condition with natural signs of wear consistent with her age of nearly a century. Dark stripe on the left cheek — authentic signs of age that only enhance her charm. The wig is somewhat wild and playful, the collar slightly yellowed by time. See all photos for an accurate impression. Perfect for:
✦ Collectors of antique dolls and Art Deco
✦ Doll restoration (to mount on a new fabric body)
✦ Mixed-media art and assemblage
✦ Curio cabinets and wunderkammers
✦ Theatrical or vintage interior styling
✦ A unique gift for lovers of the unusual
