German Porcelain Half-Doll with Uniquely Sculpted Clasped Fingers by Ernst Bohne Sohne

4.5" (11 cm.) Porcelain waist-up figure of young girl with tousled grey curly hair decorated with a garland of Dresden flowers, with sculpted low-bodice blouse having Dresden corsage, and with arms held in front of her bodice (but modeled away from body), with intertwined clasped fingers. Excellent condition. Marks: (crown over N blue stamp). Germany, circa 1910, Ernst Bohne Sohne, exceptional detail of finger modeling and variegated flowers; the model was created with four front sew holes (two at bodice, and two at hips) designed to allow an actual bouquet of silk or fresh flowers to be attached as though held in her hands.
