Rare 9 Early Kestner 169 LITTLE MISS MUFFET Closed Mouth Antique Doll Bisque
Posted by admin On December 26, 2019
9 Rare Early Kestner #169. AS “LITTLE MISS MUFFET”. Fully Jointed Cabinet Doll. From the Mary Ann Hall Collection. Original Antique Doll – Made in Germany. Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey; Along came a spider, who sat down beside her… And she convinced the dear spider to stay! Mary Ann only collected the very best dolls. Little Miss Muffet Has Learned to Share! – Here you have a darling rare, early 9 Kestner 169 child, with closed mouth, on a fully-jointed composition body with straight wrists. Her bisque head is marked only with a “C”, the mold number 169, “Made in Germany, ” and what may be another “C” on the left (though it is faint). She has a lovely face, with bright blue glass paperweight (stationary) eyes. Her body in excellent original condition, with her original and beautiful full blond wig. After extensive research, I found that this doll is extremely rare and almost impossible to find, especially in great condition like this one. And she’s from a fine, reputable collection. She comes dressed in a Little Miss Muffet outfit, with her tuffet seat, an oh-so-cute felted spider, 2 bowls of “curds and whey, ” and two spoons… Because, of course, she has learned to share! Beautiful antique condition — from a non-smoking environment. No issues noticed on the bisque after careful examination. IMPORTANT: Besides the noteworthy issues mentioned above, EXPECT any antique doll (bisque/composition/leather/china/wood) to ALSO have: (1) SIGNS OF AGE – for example: toned/crazed/chipped composition, minor wig pulls, loss of “hair” lashes on bisque heads (if they had them), not-so-tight stringing, etc. (2) MINOR CONSERVATION WORK by previous owners/collectors – for example: reset eyes in most cases! , repairs to wig, repairs to clothing, touch-ups on composition/finish/paint, etc. Any MAJOR issues — hairline crack, total repaint, etc. – would be itemized above, but these normal age/conservation details are not. They are to be expected. I’LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER. If you live in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, or U. These countries have more flexible Priority Post options, but it depends on the size and value of the item you’re purchasing. And provided the items can travel safely in the same box. Opens in a separate window/tab. As often happens, it’s the few bad apples out there who ruin it for the rest of us. Not knowing what they’re doing. And then, when they realize they’ve ruined the doll, they return it saying it was defective. BUT HAVING SAID ALL THAT.. I do bend over backwards, attempting to disclose any noteworthy condition issues I can find or think of. But these are antique and vintage dolls — so, please understand that they won’t be in brand-new condition. There will always be some minor indication of their age, and it would be impossible to itemize every single pinhead-size stain on the outfit, or hairline scratch on the body. Please expect these types of conditions with old dolls. IT CONTAINS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION. The item “Rare 9 Early Kestner 169 LITTLE MISS MUFFET Closed Mouth Antique Doll Bisque” is in sale since Saturday, December 21, 2019. This item is in the category “Dolls & Bears\Dolls\Antique (Pre-1930)\Bisque\German”. The seller is “saddlemountain” and is located in Newark, Delaware.

Rare Early Old Master Oil On Panel Portrait Painting Of A Gentleman
Posted by admin On December 23, 2019
A Rare and Special 16th Century French Renaissance Portrait of an Aristocrat or Courtier – Oil on Panel. A Very Fine Early French Portrait – Red Wax Collectors Seal Verso – Circle of Francois Clouet (1510 – 1572). Here we have an exceptional and thoroughly charming piece of history manifested in oil paint and wooden panel showing us a fine young gentleman from the late Elizabethan period albeit painted by a French artist extremely close in style to that of the celebrated French painter Clouet…. Francois Clouet was born in Tours although his father was a Dutch national and is particularly well known for his chalk drawing portrait of Mary Queen of Scots… Such is the style of the period in France in particular that a great many drawings and miniatures were accredited to Clouet but without absolute certainty… This exquisite picture falls into that category and has to be described as’school of’ Clouet for those reasons. A good deal is known about him and a fairly comprehensive account of his life and death and his exploits can be found in many volumes and of course Wikipedia offers a good account of the artist. Very finely detailed and typical of the era – a particular feature is the olive green background which appears in several of Clouet’s works – and painted directly onto a bevelled panel…… A red wax collectors seal is alos evident on the verso. This size of portrait was designed to be portable and was probably commissioned for the wife or betrothed of the sitter to carry with her on her travels reminding her of the man in her life… Housed in a later frame but appropriate in style to the original period and suiting the composition very well indeed. An excellent very early portrait of great interest….. Measurements including the frame 16″ x 13″. I hope you will afford me the privilege of taking time to look at my offerings on here. I will offer you honesty and transparency. I will clearly show you the entire work of art – front and back – and detail all it’s good and bad points. I will not be vague about age or provenance or any later work carried out. I also offer inspection at my home on all pieces with no obligation. It has to be good enough to grace my own home should it not sell. I hope you will find something you like – please message me with questions – You will find me accommodating and friendly. This is the exact cost to me. Some larger paintings can require a courier who will personally deliver to you… This may take a little longer to arrive. For international carriage costs please message me. Best wishes and thank you for looking.

RARE Antique 1882 Wanzer B Sewing Machine Canada Hand Cranked Early Canadian
Posted by admin On December 22, 2019
Vintage Props, Unusual & Decorative Antiques. Here for sale is a fantastic antique sewing machine made by Canadian company Wanzer B. It is dated 1882 on the thread cover. As you can see from the photos it is in a poor condition but the needle does go up and down when using the hand cranked wheel. Very rare and early example. Etched on one side of the thread cover is the company logo and patent date 1883. Richard Mott Wanzer was born in September 1818 and was the responsible for producing the first sewing machine in Canada. The Wanzer B model was patented in 1883 and was available in Great Britain in 1884. This example is therefore very early. The Wanzer B is a hand cranked model with no gears and works on a triple action motion. The machine was awarded a gold medal at the international Health Exhibition held in 1884. Shows extensive signs of wear and tear as it is old and has been used, but only adds to its character. Signs of rust and enamel peeling in places. This is a very old model and shows its age! Great decorative item which would look fantastic in any home or business interior.
