Offered here is an outstanding and very rare antique German character doll by Kämmer & Reinhardt, model 117n — a truly special example and a standout in any serious collection.
This doll stands an impressive 70 cm / 27.5 inches tall and is mounted on her original flapper-type toddler body with high knees, a highly desirable and expressive body form from the early 20th century.
The doll features the characteristic “flirting” eye mechanism (a well-known collector’s term referring to the expressive side-glancing eye movement typical of this model).
She is beautifully presented with an antique mohair wig and antique clothing, enhancing her authentic period appearance.
Marked “70”, confirming her large cabinet size.
