Ernst Heubach Dolly Face doll, 16" tall, doll mold
1906, bisque shoulder head, painted brows and eyelashes,
sleep eyes, open mouth, jointed leather body. |
Ernst Heubach's porcelain factory was in
Koppelsdorf, Germany, they made bisque doll heads on kid or
composition bodies. Ernst Jr. married Beatrice Marseille, daughter
of Armand Marseille and one of E. Heubach's sculptors had a brother that
worked as a sculptor, also at Marseille, which may explain why their
dolls have similarities to one another.
In 1919 Heubach
and A. Marseilles merged
and formed the United Porcelain Factory of Koppelsdorf (Vereinigte Koppelsdorf
Porzellanfabrik vorm Armand Marseille and Ernst Heubach). By 1932
the two companies went their separate ways. During this union,
1919-1932
dolls are often marked with Heubach Koppelsdorf.
