Two Porcelain Collector Dolls in Box

This item consists of two porcelain collector dolls displayed within their original packaging, likely a gift or storage box. The larger doll, positioned at the top of the box, features a porcelain head, hands, and feet, with a soft body. She has long, wavy blonde hair and a fair complexion with rosy cheeks and red painted lips. Her eyes appear to be a light color, possibly blue or green. She is dressed in an elaborate outfit consisting of a royal blue or deep purple top adorned with numerous sequins, creating a shimmering effect. The top has long sleeves with gold trim at the cuffs and neckline. Her skirt is made of a sheer, light purple or lavender fabric, possibly tulle or organza, gathered at the waist. A small green ornament or ribbon is visible in her hair. Her overall appearance suggests a regal or princess-like style. The smaller doll, nestled below, is partially visible and appears to be made of similar materials. She is dressed in an all-pink ensemble, including a dress with a ruffled skirt and what look like matching trousers or bloomers. A small flower detail is visible at her waist. Both dolls are in what appears to be excellent, unused condition, still within their protective packaging. The box itself is lined with white tissue paper, and there are informational inserts or certificates of authenticity, one featuring an image of dolls, in a plastic sleeve. The visible condition suggests these dolls have been well-preserved, indicating minimal to no wear or damage. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, typical of collector or decorative dolls from a more recent manufacturing period, likely late 20th to early 21st century.
