Beautiful antique Kammer & Reindhardt 192 or Kestner 192 25 inches tall with FAULTS read details and study photo’s.
I bought this beautiful girl as a Kestner 192 but after comparing her to my other Kammer & Reinhardt dolls she looks more like them…I will leave it up to you to decide..
Faults:
Hairline crack on forehead at the top
Left leg broken at the top of the thigh
Chip to piercing on left lobe
Despite this dolls faults (and she came to me like this) she is utterly beautiful, she has a pale complexion with rosy cheeks, a rose bud mouth, perfect little teeth and beautiful soft brown eyes with full wax eye lids and thick full eye lashes, her eye’s are perfectly working sleepy eyes. she has a fork hairline at the top right hand of her forehead which her fringe covers and is quite faint, as far as I can see she has no further damage to her head. There is a tiny chip to her piercing on her left lobe. Her body is well strung and she still stands well on a stand, I have had her for a number of years and bought her unknowing about her thigh, it hasn’t stopped her posing for me but she can’t really sit and as you can see for her photo’s her leg is lifted when laying. I believe it is her sturdy stringing that is keeping the leg in place which is why I didn’t notice for a while!! I’m sure she would continue to stand well for a long while yet without fixing but it would be recommended that she have some surgery at some point….Other than the faults mentioned her body is in good condition for it’s age, she has all of her fingers and toes and other than her poorly leg she moves well to pose.
she comes with her replacement very long new synthetic French strawberry blonde wig, pure silk ribbon hair bow, vintage petticoat and bloomers and lace stocking.

Mold 109 : A famous Handwerck mold known for its elegant, large almond-shaped eyes and “French” appearance.
This beautiful girl has large brown working sleepy almond eyes, she has a beautiful pale bisque complexion with rosy cheeks, a rose bud mouth and all of her tiny little teeth.

She poses well sitting or on a stand, she is well strung and has all of her little fingers and toes. There is some slight ageing to her body which is to be expected of a doll of her age but nothing major…See photo’s.
I have had her for a few years and she is wearing exactly what I bought her in….Her outfit is divine…She wears white diamond pattern socks, little real leather tan shoes with black pure silk ribbon bows, there is a buckle missing off of one of her shoes but they are so sweet I have kept them like this. She wears layers of antique petticoats and frilly antique bloomers. I’m not sure of the age of her dress but it’s a pretty burnt orange/red colour with panels of lace and a lace cowl neck, I would say it is defiantly vintage is not older with long puff sleeves and silver popper fasteners at the back, it’s made I think from a georgette fabric, it has a couple of tiny tiny little nibble holes in the skirt but nothing major. She wears a vintage/antique brooch on her dress. Her rust coloured velvet cotton coat is just stunning, it has three quarter sleeves, silk lines, trimmed with lace and fastens with poppers and hook and eye, I’m again not sure of it’s age but it’s pretty old definitely vintage, looks to have been beautifully hand made and has a nice full back to it. Her gorgeous little velvet hat is finished with a splendid plume of black ostrich feather and is finished at the front with a braid motif and vintage/antique brooch. An absolutely stunning doll which I have been thrilled to own :0)
