Wax Doll In Its Original Box From A World's Fair
This wax doll is stunning and very interesting. She has blue sleeping glass eyes.
She has a beautiful wig and is dressed in a gown and hat that show signs of wear but are nonetheless a very interesting piece.
She was probably made in Germany.
The box is extraordinary, with its illustrations. I have never seen this type of box before; it is a magnificent document, displaying the medal from the "Universal Exhibition" (Emperor Napoleon III) Paris 1867, London 1862, and Moscow 1872.
Given the doll's age and the box's chronology, there is a good chance that it comes from the 1878 Paris Universal Exhibition.
The doll and dress are worn but in fairly good condition considering their age.
The box is in used condition but still beautiful.
Dimensions:
Box: Length: 19"(48 cm) / Height: 8 1/4" (21 cm); Doll: 17 1/2" (44.5 cm).
