cloth joints at shoulders and swivel diagonal hip joints. The head is molded
and oil painted cloth and the rest of the body is hard stuffed muslin with
separately stitched toes and fingers with separately sewn thumb. The
original painted head and facial features are in overall very good shape
with very slight wear at seam in hair on right upper side and a slight dent
and paint loss at curl edge on right upper forehead. He wears a white linen
shirt and matching short pants, a blue long bib style tunic with maroon
edging and knit booties. Lots of personality here on this always popular

14" ( 35cm ) Lenci boy with "Lucia
"-style face, with pale blue painted side glancing eyes, looking to the
left, with blond bobbed mohair wig, covered by a black felt cap with
scalloped red edging. The costume consists of a white linen shirt, a short
sleeved forest green waist coat edged in red felt, camel colored knee length
pleated trousers with two brass buttons on each leg, ( perhaps meant to
simulate lederhosen ). The two toned knit socks are turned down just above
the ankles and the felt shoes match the pants. In his arms he holds an large
woven wicker basket full of colorful felt flowers. He has no remaining Lenci
tags but there are some loose threads on the right side of the pants where a
paper or cloth tag probably once was. Except fo r
some minor surface dust he is in overall very good condition and totally
original. US$ 895.

14" ( 35cm ) Lenci child from the
early 1930's with the " Lucia " face in her elaborate colorful ethnic
costume representing one of the southern provinces of Italy. The only
identifying feature is a smudged stamp on the bottom of her right foot, but
she has the zigzag stitching on the back of her neck as well as the second
and third fingers stitched together on both hands. She has brown painted
side glancing eyes, a black mohair wig with center part drawn into two tight
braids wrapping around and covering both ears. The costume consists of a
purple felt skirt with horizontal fuchsia band at the bottom of the skirt
with two more narrow bands on each side, one yellow and one pale green. The
same green is used for the long sleeve blouse which is edged in yellow with
crisscrossed green ties which is covered by a white organdy shawl. There is
an apron of the identical organdy tied around her waist, and she also wears
a bead necklace and brass hoop earrings. The undergarments consist of white
linen pantaloons and half slip, both edged in fuchsia felt. The socks are
white cotton and the shoes are one piece black felt slippers. The overall
condition is very good with good coloring on the face with just some minor
typical surface dust and a few miniscule moth holes on the clothing.
US$ 595.
