Discover a nostalgic treasure with this Vintage Italian "Poupee Originale" Bonomi Doll from the 1950s-60s, a masterpiece of Italian doll craftsmanship. This exquisite doll stands 15 inches tall and features fully functioning flirty sleep eyes (shifts right, center, left, & close with position changes) and a working voice box that cries when repositioned, adding a touch of realism and charm. Her swivel waist and posable limbs make her not only a delightful plaything but also a cherished collectible.
This doll comes dressed in her original attire, reflecting the elegance of the era. She wears ribbed undergarments, a pleated slip, matching detachable collar, and soft leather boots with socks, all carefully preserved. The ensemble is completed with a silk dress, an overcoat, and a matching fur-trimmed hat, embodying a timeless style. Please refer to the conditions report and photos for details on the costume's condition. A sentimental gift from a father to his cherished daughter, this doll has been treasured and maintained over the decades.
Included on her wrist is the original hang tag from Bonomi. Included is a neck tag (not shown in the photos) which gives the date acquired and the original price paid. It's an ideal addition for collectors of vintage dolls, particularly those with a passion for Italian craftsmanship or mid-20th-century toys. The doll comes with her own stand, ready to be displayed and admired in any collection. The stand shown in the photos will come with the doll. Any errors or omissions are unintentional and are based on my personal research. See the Photos and the Video (if available); they are an essential part of the description.
