Raggedy Ann Folk Art Doll with Teddy Bear Accessory
This is a handmade folk art rag doll, modeled after the classic Raggedy Ann character. The doll features a soft cloth body constructed from a cream-colored or unbleached muslin fabric. Its head is topped with thick, vibrant red yarn hair arranged in dense loops. The face is hand-painted with a minimalist style including black dot eyes, a triangleshaped brown nose, and a simple stitched-style smile. The doll is dressed in a blue and white checkered or plaid cotton dress with a ruffled hem and long sleeves. A coordinating plaid scarf is tied around the neck, secured with a wooden bead. Over the dress, the doll wears a brown fabric satchel bag containing a small, fuzzy miniature teddy bear with jointed limbs. The legs are dressed in cream-colored bloomers gathered with white lace trim, finishing with black stitched fabric boots. The craftsmanship suggests a high-quality hobbyist or boutique maker from the late 20th century, likely the 1980s or 1990s, given the 'country primitive' aesthetic. The overall condition appears excellent with minimal signs of wear; the colors are vibrant, the fabric lacks visible stains or fraying, and the yarn hair is well-maintained without significant pilling or loosening. No visible maker's marks or tags are present in this view, suggesting a one-of-a-kind or small-batch artisanal creation.
