William Goebel
bisque doll mold 521, Dolly Face shoulder head doll, 21" tall, glass eyes, open mouth with teeth, kid body. |
Franz Detleff Goebel and his son William Goebel founded
their porcelain factory Wilhelmsfeld located in
Oeslau, Thüringia, Germany to produce porcelain and earthenware objects.
By 1879
the company was known as F & W Goebel.
Early F & W Goebel objects, including bisque doll heads (1887+) were marked with a triangle
and half moon symbol with or without a two digit mold number.
By 1893 the company was owned solely by William, who changed the name to
William Goebel Porzellanfabrik
which is also when Goebel began producing fine bisque dolls of all kinds; small all bisque dolls,
bisque Dolly Face shoulder or socket heads on kid or composition jointed bodies, bent limb
character Baby dolls, half dolls, bathing beauties, ballerinas and Bécassine
dolls.
After 1900
Goebel began using the crown symbol above the WG initials mark as
shown below. Goebel also supplied
Max Handwerck with some bisque Bébé Elite doll heads. Goebel is probably best known today for their Hummel figurines and other porcelain objects. |
