Large Blossomhill Collection Porcelain Doll Appraisal

Large Blossomhill Collection Porcelain Doll

This is a large Blossomhill Collection porcelain doll, dressed in an elaborate light pink and white ensemble. The doll features a porcelain head, hands, and feet, with a soft body likely made of cloth. Her face is delicately hand-painted with blue eyes and light pink lips, and she has long, curly blonde hair. She is wearing a multi-layered gown. The outer layer is a white lace overlay, intricately patterned, over a light pink underskirt. The skirt flares out significantly due to multiple ruffles and tiers, with a prominent light pink ruffled hem visible at the bottom. The bodice features light pink accents, including a visible pink insert around the chest area, and is adorned with similar white lace detailing. Her sleeves are puffed, reaching just above the elbows, and are also decorated with what appear to be small green floral or ribbon embellishments. A white lace or tulle bonnet, adorned with a small pink rose, sits atop her head. The 'Blossomhill Collection' mark is visible on the back of her neck, indicating its manufacturer. The doll appears to be in relatively good condition with no obvious chips or cracks to the porcelain, though some minor disarray of the hair and clothing threads is present due to age or handling. The overall aesthetic suggests a Victorian or Edwardian style period, or a modern reproduction in that style, likely manufactured in the late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship, particularly in the clothing, suggests a focus on decorative display rather than rough play.
