Antique Handmade Cloth Doll with Painted Face and Red Gingham Outfit, Early 20th Century

This antique handmade cloth doll dates to the early 20th century and features a charming hand-painted face with blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and short brown hair. The doll is dressed in its original red and white gingham outfit, complete with a bonnet-style hood and matching stitched body. The fabric face shows natural wear and age, consistent with its vintage character, and the stitching throughout reflects the handcrafted quality of early rag dolls.

The doll is fully soft-bodied, with stitched details defining the hands and feet. Its clothing is sewn directly onto the body, a common feature of early handmade dolls, intended more for display and play than for redressing.

A collectible example of American folk art and early textile craftsmanship, this piece captures the rustic charm and simplicity of turn-of-the-century childhood toys. Good antique condition with visible age wear, fabric fading, and paint loss on the face. Some hand-stitched seams show minor separation, consistent with age.

Vintage condition as pictured.
