Description

These vintage Black Americana rag dolls reflects a style of handmade folk art dolls once commonly produced in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The collection includes multiple cloth dolls in varying sizes, each featuring stitched facial details, yarn or fabric hair, and period inspired garments such as calico dresses, aprons, gingham fabrics, and headscarves. Also included is a small matching doll and a patchwork quilt, adding to the display appeal. These pieces are constructed of fabric with stuffed bodies and show the soft, hand sewn character typical of early homemade or craft fair examples. Today, such dolls are often collected as historical artifacts that represent a complex and important chapter in American material culture, reflecting both folk artistry and the evolving conversation around representation in antiques and collectibles.
