A vintage soft cloth doll representing a traditional golli character, common in 20th-century British toys and literature. The doll is constructed with a black fabric body and limbs. The head features curly black wool hair stitched into place to create a textured appearance. The facial features are composed of applied cream and white felt circles for the eyes and a large red felt mouth. The doll is dressed in an integral outfit featuring a bright red fabric shirt with two white plastic four-hole buttons and trousers made from a brown and black houndstooth pattern fabric. The feet are finished in plain black fabric. No maker’s marks, labels, or tags are present on the body or the clothing.
