Pajama Girl Appraisal

Porcelain "Pajama Girl" Doll with Teddy Bear

This is a charming porcelain doll, likely designed as a collectible or decorative item rather than a plaything. The doll features a beautifully crafted porcelain head, hands, and possibly feet, with a soft cloth body, which is common for this type of doll to allow for posing. Her facial features are delicately painted, including rosy cheeks, pink lips, and serene blue eyes framed by light brown eyebrows. Her hair is styled in golden blonde curls, which appear to be either synthetic or mohair, tied up in two high pigtails with white ribbons. She is dressed in a two-piece pajama set, consisting of a pink and white striped top with a white ruffled collar and cuffs, and solid pink velvet or velour pajama bottoms with elasticated ankles. The outfit suggests a 'sleepover' or 'bedtime' theme. A small, plush tan teddy bear, accented with a pink bow and pink inner ears, is clutched in her arms, further enhancing the cozy, childlike theme. The doll appears to be in good overall condition, with no immediately visible cracks or chips on the porcelain parts. There might be some minor dust accumulation on the clothing and hair, indicative of display rather than heavy use. The clothing itself shows some creases and possibly minor discoloration consistent with age or storage. The style suggests it could be from the late 20th century, possibly 1980s or 1990s, a popular period for collectible porcelain dolls. No visible maker's marks or signatures are discernable from the image.
