Hello Wendy, I’m very glad that you chose Mearto for your online appraisal, Considering the photographs, overall pattern, porcelain quality and the composition, I concluded that this is a Vintage Hand Painted Porcelain Doll. The piece dates back to the period from 1930 to 1970. The piece was likely a reproduction of the famous French Doll Manufacturer "Bru Jne R". Also known as "Bru Doll" or "Bebe Bru", the company was active through the second hald of the 19th century. Since they are quite expensive and valuable there were reproductions of the pieces such as this one, which is now a vintage piece itself. The piece is completely jointed and blonde with blue eyes. The piece is wearing a victorian style contemporary interpretation dress with red velvet highlights. The piece is in good condition without visible problems. Hand painted. Dimensions: 21 Inches High Condition: The piece is in good condition without visible problems. Provenance: 7b Auction Sandpoint, Idaho. 50-100$.
