VINTAGE GRAMOPHONE WIRE & CLOTH DOLL - This very unique doll was used in the 1930's in Germany to decorate the Gramophone. She is 8 Inches Tall plus 1 Inch for the stand x 4 Inches Wide. She is made of what appears to be silk thread and cloth over wire. Her features I think are painted. She is in good condition for her age. She is in shades of green & lavender and is holding a staff or cane in one hand and a bouquet of flowers in the other. There is a hand crochet french berret and vest. I have only seen her like in a book on dolls and puppets through the ages.

Hand-Made, Hand-Painted Doll
From KondapalliSouthern State of Andhra Pradesh in India The artisans there specialize in making these types of dolls, which are hand-crafted from terra cotta and baked in a clay oven and then painted in bright colors. This particular type of doll is a favorite throughout India - made of 4 separate parts, each part moves when you tap it. She dances for you! A very simple mechanism accomplishes this - each part is hollow inside, and rests on the next part via a bent wire post. The doll's movement - which simulates traditional Indian classical dance. Size: 10 H x 4 W x 4¾ D Condition: Very good Weight: Approx. 8 Oz. There are four pieces. The fourth piece is a metal ring - I have no idea where it goes. The doll dances with the head,body and torso placed on the bent wire in each piece.
