Hermann
and Franz Kiesewetter may have worked or were associated with the established Porzellanfabrik Leube & Company
(1883-1964) in Reichmannsdorf, Thuringia, Germany from 1907 to 1917 at
which time Hermann retired.
Porzellanfabrik Leube &
Company made dolls, figurines and toys mostly for export. It's unclear to
us the relationship of Franz, is he a brother or son of Hermann? Most
probably.
Doll shown at left, is 15" tall, all composition with sleep eyes, open
smiling happy mouth with teeth, wigged, composition jointed body. She has
a replaced modern wig and clothing seems appropriate but probably not original.
