<td width="100%">
Antique Terra Cota Art Deco Pottery with a lip at the position of the decorative carved wax head which appears to be connected to a cork. The features of the wax head has a decidedly french appearance, one often seen in the bed dolls of the same era (1910 give or take 10 years). The face sports half opened side glancing painted eyes and eye brows, painted pink lips and dots in the nostrils. Features are carved out of the white wax mixture with skill including what may be a cleft chin (or divit). The blond hair is quite soft and is neatly curled under a pink turban of cotton material decorated with a metalic thread ornamentation with the remains of blue feathers. Over the black lace collar is a beaded ornamentation that appears original. The terra cota bottle may have held liquor originally or may have always been empty as she is now but it was made with great skill. Incised in the side near the bottom is either " lind.Jn (or tind.Jn) over 27 L G (referring to 27 centimeters)".
