Heubach Girl is approximately 14
inches tall on a reproduction German composition body. The socket
head is poured in Seeley's Lady White porcelain, and the skin tones are painted
matching the antique Heubach dolls as closely as possible. The hair is painted,
as are the intaglio eyes, common to this type of doll. She is a delight with her
flounce of short, bouncy curls molded around her head.
The Gebruder Heubach Company of Germany is famous for
the beautifully painted children dolls produced by their factory during the
late 1800's - early 1900's. Heubach Girl would have been produced originally in the period of
1910 to 1915 (plus or minus).

are knit on very fine needles with tatting cotton and are hand made. Her shoes
are of German design and are suitable for the doll.
She comes complete with a metal stand, Certificate of
Authenticity, Brief written history of the Heubach Company, and the Resume of
the artist, Evelyn Stanbury, GMDM.
