Antique German China Head Doll 24" Turned Head 1800s Hertwig Pet Name? To Dress

Description

Lovely antique German china head doll
Measures a large 24", with blonde hair, a slightly turned head, a sweet facial expression and a cloth body with thumbs to her cloth hands; her lower legs fabric is old blue ticking and she feels sawdust-stuffed, though her lower torso is very firmly stuffed and may be straw or a combo of sawdust & straw
The cloth on her body is so snugly sewn on that I can't look for a maker's mark and her chemise is part of her body covering; through the fabric the china shoulder plate feels intact and also it feels like she has an embossed collar or something?  She may be a "pet name" doll and I am thinking she's quite possibly a Hertwig
The face and hair paint look very good for the age; the body fabric shows age wear & a few small holes & repairs but she doesn't appear to be leaking really and overall she presents well--just needs someone to find her a pretty dress to wear
She's thicker-waisted than many china head dolls and sits well once propped against a wall or chair back
A beautiful, one-of-a-kind china head doll to add to your collection; because of her large size she's an impressive antique display doll
