So perky and bright with big round eyes and a smile to melt the heart, they don't come like this often. She has embroidered features including her eyes but then to embellish them further they added a bead in the middles and curtain rod rings to make the eyes complete. She has red dots for a nose and a big embroidered mouth with white teeth the whole length. Her wool yarn hair is is artfully sewn to her head in a zigzag pattern. I love how her head is squared off at the top. She is as found and came from a collection in Ohio. She is very firmly stuffed with cotton, is all hand sewn. sits nicely and has very nice antique pantaloons and petticoat under a brown calico dress that is very simply sewn with a treadle sewing machine. She is 19" tall and is circa 1890-1910
