Description
For your Consideration, not w/o flaws, yet still very Beautiful :) She is not for the fussy collector, she needs some TLC.....first, her head is wobbly and will need to be re-strung, she has 1 crack, it is in the inner aspect of her right leg by knee joint, none found anywhere else, no rubber missing inside her arms. I believe Cissy is an older doll as she has the pale pink painted lids, she does have all her brush lashes. She has no bites or chews and she is clean, no odors. Her facial matte has darkened and she does have a lighter area where her cheek is on the right side. I have dressed her in a lavish non-tagged vintage factory made gown, it reminds me of the Belle of the Ball or Garden Party gown, very similar in style. The top portion is a pink satin bodice with tiny pink loop trim at the waistline, the butterfly type sleeves using the same net embroidered tulle as the top layer of the skirt, I added the vintage floral accents that match the 2 rows by her left front, pink cabbage roses and fuzzy for-get-me-nots, these also I created for her. The gown skirt portion has a pink satin/taffeta attached slip, then on top a layer of plain tulle, top layer the pretty embroidered floral pattern, antique white flowers. The gown does have a few here and there tiny holes, mostly in the folds and hard to find. The gown itself closes in the back with 2 snaps, they almost look like brass. The gown fits her perfectly. She has her original cream lace trimmed panties, elastic stretched at waist, and held tighter together with small gold pin. She has her original back seam thigh high nylons, tops a bit stretched, on her left hand she carries her gold foil high heel shoes, the elastic has stretched on both, and one the strap has detached from shoe. Cissy has her original gauntlet style gloves, and on her left hand her faux diamond ring. I want to also mention her eyes tend to stick and may need a little help, this may change after her head is re-strung? As mentioned, she is possibly an older Cissy, she has her original wig, mostly in the original set, 4 top front spit curls, hair styled back with re-placed spanner bar, nice back curls, some fuzzies, fly-aways, she does have a hairnet over the bottom portion. I created her vintage pink blush hair bow with gold stretch elastic band that goes under her hair. She has pierced ears with vintage dangle pearl drop earrings, one pearl slightly different than the other? I made the pearl necklace for her. She has rose red lips, no blush, lower painted lashes, full upper brush lashes, green blue clear sleep eyes, whites not as white as when new. Truly a lovely doll that just needs a little TLC :) Please ask questions or request more pictures prior to bidding. If you have less than 20 feedback please contact me prior to bidding.
