Bidspirit auction | Unidentified Maker, Collection of Five


Unidentified Maker, Collection of Five Folk-Art Souvenir Dolls, Felt and Cloth, 7-9 inches - A collection of approximately five vintage folk-art souvenir dolls, crafted in a style reminiscent of mid-century European makers such as Lenci. Each doll is constructed from felt and cloth with fixed, painted or embroidered facial features and hair fashioned from yarn or wool. The dolls are dressed in their original, highly detailed traditional folk costumes, featuring layered skirts, embroidered waistcoats, and regional headwear. One doll retains an illegible circular sticker on the sole of its foot. The collection is housed within a custom-made glass and wood display case. Height 7 to 9 inches.
