This is an antique chalk ware half doll pincushion that was made in Germany 1900-1920s. The pincushion overall measures 6 inches high by 4.5 inches in diameter and has a turquoise hand panted dress, long gloves and headband and hand painted facial features. The pin cushion dress is a base of blue satin with pink ruffles and a net over skirt. There are pins included including a Victorian white glass ball headed pin and several later faux pearl headed pins. The doll has some wear to the face and the pincushion is soiled but a great item of antique or vintage sewing memorabilia and quite collectible.
