This amazing unique Rag Doll measures 13" tall standing x 11" wide (edge of wings to fingers). Measures 9 1/2" sitting.
We purchased this from an Estate Sale here in Virginia, and we have no history on this unusual rag doll.
Angel Mom with Baby. Hand painted.
DETAILS: (what I see, from my untrained eye.)
- This looks to be hand painted fabric and machine stitched.
- Amazing staring big eyes which are hand painted.
- Body, arms, legs, & head are all stuffed with soft material.
- The Mom Angel has jointed arms and legs.
- Mom and baby have stitched noses. Mom has stitched mouth.
- Their hair is made of some type of fiber material.
- Moms dress & Baby's cloth blanket bag a stained cotton muslin material. Edge of this muslin have edge threads unraveling as made.
- No seam splits or holes.
- I love the way the baby is attached inside the muslin cloth. The more I played with this, I realized that this allows the baby to be positioned close to Mom, or hanging out in this cloth. Feels like the baby does not have body or legs, simply arms and head.
- Moms back of head and back of wings, have sewed loops of black thread. Looks to be so that this can be hung to display.
- I do not find any artist signature, or who this was made by.
Such a cute unusual folk art doll. Would make a great addition to any collection.
