This lot consists of two vintage handmade dolls in the traditional golli. The first item is a larger cloth doll constructed from black fabric with fuzzy black yarn hair. The facial features include a red fabric mouth and a single yellow felt eye. It wears a fixed outfit comprising a metallic gold, black, and red brocade-patterned tunic over bright orange-red trousers with integrated black fabric feet. The second item is a smaller knitted doll made from black yarn with fuzzy black hair and two small yellow bead eyes. It wears a blue knitted jumper under red knitted dungarees featuring two small orange buttons and integrated black knitted feet. No maker’s marks, labels, or tags are visible on either piece, indicating they are likely folk art or home-crafted items.
The larger cloth doll is approximately double the height of the smaller knitted doll.
