View Antique German All Bisque Googly Eyes Doll 7in Mold 401/16 Glass Eyes Mohair Wig with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. The doll is incised "401" over "16" on the back of the head — 401 is the mold (face) number and 16 is the factory size number, standard German bisque doll notation of the early 20th century. Original mohair wig, short-cropped style. Antique German All-Bisque Character Doll — 7 Inches — Mold 401/16 Charming antique all-bisque doll standing approximately 7 inches (18 cm) tall, dressed as a regional/folk-style boy. The doll is incised "401" over "16" on the back of the head — 401 is the mold (face) number and 16 is the factory size number, standard German bisque doll notation of the early 20th century. This mold number appears in doll-reference sources connected to early 20th-century German bisque doll production; no manufacturer's name mark is present, so it is offered as German, maker unattributed. Features: Fully bisque (unglazed porcelain) head, torso, and limbs Fixed (non-sleeping) dark glass eyes with painted radiating lash detail Painted closed smiling mouth with soft cheek tinting Original mohair wig, short-cropped style Original folk/regional boy costume: black velvet peaked cap with red rosette cockade, black velvet bolero jacket with silver-tone ball buttons, matching velvet knickerbocker trousers, red knit undershirt, white folded collar with black velvet tie, black velvet neck ribbon Moulded and painted pale blue stockings and black strap shoes Bisque hands with separated fingers Condition — please read carefully: This is a genuine antique doll being sold in as-found condition, not new or mint. Attribution note: Mold 401 appears in doll-reference sources connected to Hermann Steiner and to general German googly-eye mold lists, but since no "HS" or "Herm Steiner" maker mark is present, the maker cannot be confirmed — listed as German, maker unattributed, possibly associated with the Hermann Steiner character/googly tradition. Notable flaws: A fine hairline crack is visible under the right eye A crack on the left shoulder plate — this crack is stable and has been fixed/reinforced, not actively separating Light general surface wear consistent with age (minor grime/soot specks near the head marking, light fraying at the jacket neckline seam, mild mottling to painted socks) Wig shows original glue residue, normal for an antique bisque doll Please review all photos closely, as they form part of the condition description. Sold as an antique collectible for display; not intended as a children's toy due to age and fragility. Measurements: Height: approx. 7 in (18 cm) Ships carefully packed with padding to protect the bisque head and limbs.  Combine shipping available on multiple purchases — message before paying if buying more than one item. International buyers welcome — customs forms will accurately declare the item as an antique collectible doll. Condition: Used.
