ARMAND MARSEILLE GOOGLIES EYE DOLL HEAD & SHOULDERS

Here is a lovely little Armand Marseille Bisque headed Gogglies eyed doll head and shoulders, it has a very charismatic look about it with the blue eyes and smirk..



The base of the neck is marked with AM 320 11/0 Germany.


The dolls head and shoulders measures almost 6cm in height by 4cm wide at the base of the shoulders.




The face is very delicately painted with a dimpled chin, moulded blue eyes that look to the right as you look at it, rosie cheeks and a little moulded tuft of hair that comes from the top of the head down onto the forehead.


















This is in lovely condition with no damage and no discolouration.

HISTORICAL LETTER NAPOLEON BONAPARTE 11TH SEPT 1819

Here is what I consider to be an important letter or document regarding Napoleon Bonaparte.

This letter was written by Captain Nichols and is dated 11th September 1819.

This also has Major Gorreguer, Secretary of States name incuded at the end and on the back page of this letter.

The writing is very faint and difficult to read but I can make out some words. This begins:-

"Dear Sir I believe that I saw ? Bonaparte".

There are other words that I think I can make out with one being Prison, Bonaparte appears about three times and I think Guardsman.

I would dearly love to know exactly what the letter is about.

Please follow this link to find out more about Captain Nichols, Major Gorreguer and Bonaparte.

Kurt Jobst ring

Here is a very pretty vintage silver Kurt Jobst ring set with a Chrysocolla.

The ring is marked on the inside band with .925, Jobst and what looks like a JK.

The makers mark is slightly indistinct so any help in identifying the actual mark of Kurt Jobst would be very much appreciated.

The makers mark can be clearly seen in the first photograph.

Would also appreciate help on pricing this item.
