This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/23/2016
A spectacular & seldom seen French Fashion affixed upon a mechanical body that not only allows her to waltz about the parlor floor while a musical tune plays but she also raises her left hand, containing a lorgnette, to her face alternately turning her head in search of her beau. A visually stunning automata that not only appeals to doll collectors, automation collectors but to anyone who appreciates the unusual or aesthetically appealing objects from the past. At some point in time she has been nicely redressed in antique fabrics, mechanism is somewhat hesitant and most likely in need of minor lubrication. The bisque head appears to be free of any issues however it is difficult to fully inspect the bisque shoulder plate do to clothing but it appears to be without damage as well!
Item Dimensions: 21'' T.
