The Theodor Recknagel
porcelain factory began in ca. 1886, located in Alexandrienthal,
near Thuringia, Germany. They did not begin doll production until
1893. The four digit mold (19XX) numbers do not appear to co-inside
with actual dates, as one might think. Recknagel dolls can be of the finest quality to rather
course bisque.
Here are some Theodor Recknagel dolls we have found:
