JDK 14 Kestner Bisque Head 17” Doll. Fully Jointed, 237?.
I don’t know much about Kestner dolls- my friend gave me this doll as well as a Handwerck doll.. (I only collect Sasha’s & Effner Little Darlings) I will give the description to the best of my ability....This appears to be a “toddler” doll. The head is Bisque and marked JDK Made in Germany- see photo. (I cannot tell if the mold number is 237 or 239) The wig is of good quality (I’m familiar w/doll wigs because the... Effner dolls I collect are wigged) It is marked “100% Cheveux Made in France” She measures 17” tall. I believe the clothes are not original to the doll- they are machine sewn, but are cute for the era of this doll. There are small marks on the dress at the waistline, concurrent with a metal doll stand. The body is in good condition. Red is outlining the toes. The stringing is good. Please feel free to ask any questions- A collector of this type of doll will know more than I. Thanks for Looking!
