Doll Value Appraisal

Bradford Exchange / Bradford Galleries Porcelain Doll with Accessories

This item is a porcelain doll, likely from the Bradford Exchange or Bradford Galleries, presented in its original retail packaging. The doll features long, dark, wavy hair and a finely detailed porcelain face with painted features, including eyes, eyebrows, and lips. She is dressed in a white gown or top with puffed sleeves, adorned with red and black beadwork around the neckline. The garment appears to be made of a satin-like or smooth fabric. She has a relatively small, delicate facial structure, typical of collectible porcelain dolls. Inside the box, which has a pink and white polka-dot pattern on the inside flaps, additional accessories are visible. These include what appears to be a separate white garment or accessory with fringe and red and white bead detailing, possibly a Native American-inspired design, wrapped in plastic. Below this, in a separate cardboard compartment, there is a small, woven, nest-like object, also wrapped in plastic, and possibly containing small 'eggs' or decorative elements. A pink informational card from 'Bradford Galleries' is prominently displayed in front of the doll, providing manufacturing or origin details. The overall condition appears to be new or like new, as it is still in its original packaging with tissue paper and plastic wrapping on accessories. The doll's hands are also visible, appearing to be porcelain as well. This doll represents a collectible art doll, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, designed for display rather than play. The craftsmanship suggests attention to detail in the doll's facial sculpt and costuming.
