PAIR Antique Victorian Dumps Paperweight Red Orchids Large
PAIR Antique Victorian Dumps Paperweight Red Orchids Large - lovely pair of antique Victorian paperweights, dumps in larger than average size with unusual internal colors. They are from an estate collection of Victorian glass antiques to mid century modernist glass. They have areas of surface wear particularly on the flat bottoms and edges and around the very tops. Handed down by original owner these are about 140 years old and consist of rarer mint green color rather than the more common aquamarine color as well as rarer internal colors of red, white, and yellow. Most have a single color if any internally. Size of each is 4 1/2" tall by 4 1/2" wide and very, very chunky. These are quite hefty and weighty. They are also very well made by hand as you can see on the photos of the bottoms. They sit flat and evenly on the table. Other than the overall scratching these are a most unusual pair of Victorian paperweight dumps for your antique glass collection. A good local glass polisher could probably give these a better finish although they are noticeably early and charming the way they are.......Hard to find an early matched handmade pair of these.

Each stick measures just about 11 7/8" tall by 10 7/8" wide east to west, end of arm to end of arm. They were never monogrammed or inscribed. Decoration on tops of holders matches that around bottom edges of bases so you know they are a matched set.

These bases can usually be found easily on line or at any antique show if you wish to replace them. The tops have some scratches and some dings here and there. From the bottom connection on up any age wear is very faint and not eye obvious unless up close inspecting. This pair is quite tall and sits prominently on any table or sideboard or is able to be used in place of electric lighting as needed. This is a lovely pair of large tall older vintage triple candlesticks for your formal dining table!

1940s NASB Nancy Ann Storybook Doll w Box 113 and Original Paperwork. Doll is marked USA Story Book Dolls. She is stiff bisque with jointed hard plastic arms; 1940s transitional. Original owner confused her dolls with their boxes so the doll is likely a different name than the box states. Body, head, wig, face, clothes, hat are all excellent.

Chunky 7″ German Bisque 550 Baby Boy Doll Intaglio Eyes
Chunky 7inch German Bisque 550 Baby Boy Doll Intaglio Eyes and a toddler type body from an estate and in original condition. Back of head is marked Germany, 550, 14/0. Size is a broad 7" from top of head to bottom of lower right foot. The composition body has its original brown paper tape around the chest which may have a crier inside the torso. It doesn't appear that the tape has ever been removed from the body but we don't hear or feel the weight of a crier in there. The head has deep blue intaglio eyes, brushstroke painted hair, wide lips and a "pug" nose. There is also a chin dimple. The broad face, chunky body and original gauze dress with blue trim show this pudgy baby to be an original Boy baby doll. Lace trim is starting to pull away on one end. The head is all good. No cracks, chips, flakes, hairlines etc.... Although the head is detailed with a noticeable fontanelle flat spot as you would see on a real baby's head the bisque is a little crude particularly on the ears. This is probably due to the doll being one of the later examples to come out of this mold. The body is a 5 piece light pink lightweight composition having 2 legs that curve but don't cross. They look much as you would see in a baby learning to walk who has not fully achieved toddlerhood. The body has some age spotting which has not been cleaned and the neck socket is caving a little bit from age splits around the neck opening. The head still sits sturdy in the opening so a socket buildup is not necessary at this point but you may want to consider it down the line. Other than this the body is all intact and in fairly good condition. A little cleaning and you will have a lovely all original German bisque boy baby for your collection. He also looks lovely displayed on antique miniature furniture.
