LARGE Antique Oriental Japanese Geisha Doll, Glass Case 21 3/4\"T BEAUTIFUL :
$525.00

This is BEAUTIFUL antique Japanese Geisha doll and she comes in a large glass case with wood and glass. She has an Oriental motif flat cardboard box which also looks old. I don\'t know if it is original to the doll or added later. From what I have heard I think she is from around thelate 1926 to 1989 which is known as the Showa Period. A nice er wrote to tell me her father got her one 50 years ago.

The doll is large at 17 3/4\" tall from the wood plateau top (18 1/2\" tall WITH the wood plateau) to her silver hair piece, and about 6\" wide elbow to elbow, 7 3/4\" wide kimono in back. The wood pedestal that she is standing on is 7 1/4\" wide by 6\" deep and is 3/4\" tall. She has a very ornate hair style with a material flower and gold silky bow that has it\'s two ends hanging down in double gold strings. The flower has two white silky strings also hanging down. that are all curled up and a silver and gold large knotted piece in her elaborate hair bun and also a BEAUTIFUL ORNATE hanging silver metal \"tassel\" like piece near her face.

She is holding a fan that is folded in her left hand. Her clothes are very BEAUTIFUL and very COLORFUL and are made of silk brocade from what I am told. She has a cream and silver brocade scarf that crosses in front and which goes around and is inside her robe near her neck in back. Her robe is a GORGEOUS and crosses in front and goes all the way to a train in the back. Her sleeves are very long and LOVELY! Her one foot that is exposed has a cream colored cloth \"shoe\" with two toes and she appears to be wearing red pants. The design on her orangey-red brocade outfit has silver, gold and cream shiny overlay in the shape upside down fans. There is also a white silky \"rope\" around her waist. She has a HUGE cream color brocade material \"wrap\" (I apologize for not knowing what this is called) around her waist that goes up under her bust and to her hips and it goes around to her back and culminates in a HUGE bow. The colors are yellow, orange, green, light blue and silver trim. There is one long beige scarf like piece around her hip that has a bow as well and the same material and beige color is on the underside of the brocade skirt.

The flat cardboard box measures 7/8\" tall, 6 3/8\" long by 2 3/4\" deep. There is a cardboard piece inside it and it is also a little stained inside. I don\'t know the significance or even if it came with the doll.


The footed case is, of course LARGE! It measures 21 3/4\" tall, 13\" wide and 10 1/2\" deep. Glass door, sides and top are intact with no cracks. Inside is a textured material in back and on the base that is cream in color with dark goldish swirls.

CONDITION of the doll: The girl and the fan are in really good condition. The girl\'s fingers are just a tiny bit frayed on the very tips of two fingers.. Her face and bangs are hand painted and look just LOVELY! The kimono above her waist and down her right facing arm may be slightly faded I really can\'t tell except that it is a little bit lighter in color. The wrap around her waist and that goes under the bust has a very small area that is slightly discolored right on the corner of the material under the bust. The wood piece she is standing on has a few very small stains on top and the sides. These things are really not bad but I like to note everything.

CONDITION of the case: The back has a stain that is 4 3/4\" wide by 3 1/4\" tall. The floor inside is stained as well and it is about a 5 3/4\"at the widest part and is closest to the right facing side glass. I would imagine that this textured material could either be replaced or something could be put right over it too. The door opens fine and has a brass door pull but is missing a tassel or the pull charm. The wood is painted black There is a few chips in the black wood, but not bad. It is dull from age. The glass is not cracked or chipped but has some scratches also not bad.

The doll is the actual focal point and she is FANTASTIC! What a WONDERFUL addition for the collector or anyone who would appreciate all of the work that went into this BEAUTIFUL doll!
