Antique Pincushion Doll with Porcelain Head – 1920s Flapper Style Half Doll

Antique Pincushion Doll with Porcelain Head – 1920s Flapper Style Half Doll – Green Satin Outfit with Pins & Ribbons Charming antique pincushion doll, featuring a porcelain bisque head and handmade stuffed satin body, once used as a sewing companion. The doll’s head is beautifully painted with soft blush cheeks, red lips, and delicately arched brows. She wears a green satin jumpsuit trimmed with taupe fringe and a cream ribbon sash. The outfit is accented with an assortment of vintage pins, beads, and safety pins collected over time — a wonderful authentic detail showing its use as a pincushion. This type of doll was often crafted between the 1920s and 1940s, sometimes assembled at home using imported half-doll heads from Germany or Japan, then hand-finished in the U.S. as functional decorative pieces. The ribbon bow on her head and the soft color palette are typical of Art Deco–era “flapper” dolls.
