A lovely older doll made of celluloid. Her costume represents Gutach in the Schwarzwald (Black Forest) region in Germany. The costume from Gutach is by far the most well known national costume of Germany. The straw hat with woolen pompoms is very typical. Unmarried girls wear red pompoms on their hats, married women have black pompoms. This obviously is an unmarried girl. Skirt made of felt, painted legs and shoes. Moving head and limbs. Most likely made by Schmider. A former owner has glued her onto a piece of wood.
