Victorian Milliner’s Model Doll on Wooden Base | 1849

An unusual family heirloom, a miniature milliner’s model doll from the mid-19th century displayed on a carved wooden base that says “Lucy 1849.” Evidently that’s the doll’s name! 1849 is correct for the doll- an early example. There is an old note taped to the bottom that gives another name, Mary Allison Mitchell, age 4, and the date ‘08, so I think that this early Victorian doll was passed down to and cherished by a younger descendant, perhaps a grandchild. The bottom of the doll’s black net shawl was glued to the base when I found it, so the base was made for the doll: Her legs are missing, and also one arm. Sold as is, as a unique assemblage.
