The high-gloss white glaze is flawless.

How she survived with no damage to her porcelain body for over a 100 years sure speaks volumes to the love and devoted care she received from her former owners! Every now and then a doll will arrive and instantly hit a home run with your heart. Liesel is definitely one of those.

Antique Victorian Poured Wax Doll — 32" — c. 1860–1885
A breathtaking example of Victorian doll artistry, this magnificent 32" poured wax doll is a rare survivor from the golden age of English doll making. She commands attention with her luminous poured wax head and limbs, piercing blue glass eyes, and delicate blonde ringlet wig — all hallmarks of the finest Victorian dollmakers, including the celebrated Pierotti and Montanari families of London.
Her straw-stuffed cloth body, poured wax lower limbs, and original period clothing — white cotton dress with lace-trimmed pantaloons, bonnet, and pearl earrings — speak to her remarkable age and authenticity. At over 140 years old, she is in wonderful antique condition, retaining the quiet dignity and ethereal beauty that made these dolls the prized possessions of Victorian England's most privileged households.
A serious collector's piece of this caliber rarely comes to market in original condition. She would be a crown jewel in any Victorian doll collection.
Issued by The Bradford Exchange as a limited edition collectible commemorating
the legendary Flying Scotsman locomotive, No. 4472. The Flying Scotsman was the first steam locomotive
officially recorded at 100 mph and made the first non-stop run between London and Edinburgh in 1928. All animated
and mechanical features confirmed fully operational.
“The whistle sounds, the train moves, and for a moment the golden age of steam is alive again.”

Antique poured wax character doll portraying Goya's "Boy in Red" painting! ONE OF A KIND!
This amazing antique WAX survivor is somewhat of a mystery. As near as we can tell from our research, he was created late 1800's-early 1900's as a wax tribute character doll representing the little boy in the famous Spanish painter, Francisco Goya of Goya's "Red Boy" painting.
Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zúñiga is a large full-length portrait in oil painted in 1787–88. It depicts a boy three or four years of age, standing in fancy velvet red clothes, with birds and cats. This young child only lived to age 8. Cause of death has never been determined. I actually created a diorama of the scene sitting beneath the framed print of the original painting, which is pictured above.
