Irish Dancer Porcelain Doll

This is a porcelain collector's doll depicting a traditional Irish dancer, possibly produced in the late 20th or early 21st century. The doll features a ceramic or porcelain head, hands, and lower legs/feet, with a soft, cloth body. Her facial features are delicately painted, including green eyes, light brown brows, pink lips, and rosy cheeks. She has long, curly red hair, styled with bangs across her forehead, and is adorned with a dark green velvet-like headband. The doll is dressed in a dark teal or emerald green velvet dress, typical of an Irish jig dress, with visible gold-colored trim along the edges of the skirt's opening. The dress features a white lace-like collar and delicate white embellishments at the cuffs. A prominent decorative element on the front of the bodice is an embroidered symbol reminiscent of a Celtic knot or shamrock in yellow, red, and green thread. The skirt portion of the dress also has embroidered spiral designs in pink and green on the teal velvet. Underneath the main dress, a bright yellow underskirt is visible, providing a vibrant contrast. The doll wears white socks and black lace-up shoes, characteristic of hard shoes used in Irish dance. The doll is presented on a dark brown, possibly wooden or plastic, display stand that secures her at the ankles. Overall, the doll appears to be in good condition with no visible damage, chips, or significant wear. The clothing is clean and well-maintained. The craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced collector's item, designed for display rather than play.
