Antique Spanish? Card Playing Doll Trio ca. 1840 - 1860

These three elderly senoras are sitting around the card table, possible discussing the old days. The card table has gold laced decorations and one of the ladies dress is covered with gold threaded embroidery, while another wears a heavy silver necklace. The third has suffered a severe accident leaving her without arms, but still getting the best seat, a plush arm chair, while the other two sit on round stools.

All of them are seated on a thick stuffed carpet like base. The card table is a separate piece. The dolls will need a little help to make them sit up straight, perhaps a stitch or two pulling them in the right direction.

Overall a humorous gem from card playing history.
