The Story of Frozen Charlotte Dolls
Manufactured as early as 1850, these intriguing bisque/china/porcelain dolls were originally produced as Victorian Bathing Dolls, called Frozen Charlotte; so named from a song about a Victorian era girl who went out dancing with her beau to a ball at a nearby inn. She left without her wrap against her mother's wishes and froze in the snow.
As the story goes, on a piercingly cold, winter night, Charlotte's beau, Charles, picked Charlotte up in his sleigh to attend a ball at the village inn, 15 miles away. Looking lovely, young Charlotte, dressed in her finery, vainly wanted to be seen and admired along the way. She did not listen to her mother's good advice to cover herself with a blanket, refusing even to wear her wrap. By the time she and Charles arrived at the inn, Charlotte was a frozen corpse!
The song goes on to say that Charlie soon died
of a broken heart and they forever slumber together, in one tomb.
Most of these charming dolls were manufactured by numerous factories in Germany from 1850 to the early 1900s although few bear any identifying marks. Many of the imperfect dolls were tossed in the woods and with the onset of WW1 and subsequently WW2 most of the factories were abandoned or destroyed- so these little dolls lay buried in the dirt in the large manufacturing centers and they are dug up by “excavators”. These Charlottes come from the Lauscha area in Germany.
