Porcelain Sailor Boy Doll

This is a pre-owned porcelain collector's doll, depicting a smiling young boy dressed in a sailor outfit. The doll is presented in its original retail box, partially obscured by plastic packaging, suggesting it is either new in box or has been carefully repackaged. The doll features a delicately crafted porcelain head, hands, and lower legs/feet, characteristic of collectible bisque or porcelain dolls. His face is expressive, with bright blue inset eyes, painted rosy cheeks, and a wide-set, gentle smile revealing a hint of teeth. His hair appears to be sculpted or a short, dark brown wig. The sailor outfit consists of a white top with a navy blue collar sporting two white stripes, and a red bow or ascot at the neck. The sleeves also have matching navy blue and white striped cuffs. He wears white shorts. A matching white sailor hat with a red stripe is visible, possibly held in one of his porcelain hands, though it appears to be separate from his head. The porcelain body parts are lightly colored, mimicking a child's skin tone, with subtle detailing. Parts of the doll, particularly the articulated limbs and head, are wrapped in clear plastic or bubble wrap for protection, indicating careful handling or original packaging. The overall condition appears to be excellent, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the porcelain or fabric. This type of doll typically dates from the late 20th century, likely 1980s-2000s, a common period for mass-produced collectible porcelain dolls. Manufacturing details are not visible, but the level of detail on the face and clothing suggests a commercially produced item.
