This is one of the more desired Emma Clear dolls. She is the so-called China Grape Lady, due to her wonderful grape decorations on her snood. I am guessing as to her date,1946, which resides inside the large "C" in Clear on her back...it is difficult to read. However, the previous owner has marked on her muslin legs," Grape, 1948, Mildred Knight, m2750-1" This example of Emma Clear's work has her original corset and Humpty-Dumpty Tag on her back. Emma Clear ran the Humpty-Dumpty Doll Repair Hospital and it was her grand idea to reproduce the great parians and chinas dolls. This one has wonderful painting, especially on her eyes. Emma added spiral accents to the eyes much like Simon-Halbig did on their early chinas and parians. Grape Lady does have her original necklace and earrings. Her feet are painted with a blueish-purple luster and are flat footed like the early parians. This is a lovely example of Emma Clear's work! Make an offer if not in an auction.
