Why You’ll Love It
A handsome porcelain gentleman doll, unsigned but well made. Dressed in a tailored wool suit with layered vest, shirt, and tie, this figure evokes the look of a classic mid-century executive or well-to-do professional. He has short auburn hair, and arms and legs that allow him to sit, stand, and gesture naturally. He holds a pair of eyeglasses and a cigarette. Equally at home as an executive, boss, father, uncle, shop patron, professor, or poker-night companion, this doll is ideal for study interiors, libraries, offices, living rooms, or club-style settings.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
