What does this mean?

Dear Victoria,

Thank you for your help and patience.

The presented object appears to be a whole body and head porcelain girl doll with a height of 13 inches. The doll had probably once glass eyes and sleeping eyes which close when the doll was turned to lay down. This piece is not marked and was probably made in 1920. The hair appears to be human hair. Localization of the manufacturer is sadly not possible.
This piece is in medium condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 15 to 30 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.

With kind regards,
George

Dear Victoria,

Thank you for your email. Sadly we have a consigning limit of 1.000 USD. Please offer your doll to a local auction house that lists their auction on international platforms to reach out to as many possible buyers as possible. Or offer it through an online-based auction or selling platform.

With kind regards,
George
