A Sampling of Antique Papier Mache Dolls


Here's a sampling of papier mache dolls.

The beauty above looks a bit haughty.


I don't know the maker of these - Voit?


I love the stern matron on the right.
Quite a large doll. Here's a front view.







Carton Moule doll above -
holding the baby was very tall -
about 3 feet

I just love the old papier mache, dolls, maybe because I'm a papier mache artist anyways they have their appeal.. have about a dozen only half are in original condition ..They have a interesting quality so different from the perfect medium of bisque and china..thanks for sharing.. enjoyed reading about your papier mache projects too.
