COMICAL 1920’S GOOGLY EYED ANTIQUE
3 WAY JOINTED MOHAIR DUCK
DRESSED IN ORIGINAL CLOTHES
This delightful antique duck has no makers label to identify her, and I cannot for the life of me remember which company manufactured her.However, I think that she’s almost certainly of either English or German origin, made sometime between the years 1920-1930.She measures 12 inches in height not including her hat (including her hat she is approximately 13 inches).
She’s made of cream coloured mohair which is clean and soft and retains approximately 90% coverage.
She is stuffed with kapok which is still firmly and evenly distributed, and has a non functioning ‘quacker’ (voice box) located in her body.
Her orange felt beak has a couple of small, old repairs close to the tip which do no detract from her beauty . . .
Her neck and both wings are disc jointed, and she has enormous card lined feet with original black felt soles.
The soles of her feet a couple of extremely minor, small age related holes in the felt (please see photo).
She is very well balanced and still stands up perfectly well on her own two (enormous) feet!
She has original (stitched in) blue glass googly eyes.She has minor light overall playwear commensurate with age and is in good sound condition with no serious faults or issues.She is still wearing her original clothes, comprising of an orange felt skirt with white felt faux buttons around the hemline, matching stitched on orange felt knickers, a white vinyl(?) collar fastened with blue silk ribbons, and a white linen sailor type hat decorated with blue and orange silk ribbons. Her clothes have light age related wear commensurate with age but are still delightful. All her clothes are removable, apart from her stitched on knickers.She is an unusual and very comical little character with a great deal of quirky charm.
She displays beautifully and would be an asset to any collection.
