Item Details

Early 20th Century Hand Crafted Folk-art American Jig Doll Figure


A charming and quirky hand-crafted early 20th Century folk-art American jig doll figure. Wearing a wood and tin hat with ceramic pins for eyes. All hand painted detail, likely to have had a pipe in its mouth at some point, which has been lost over time (or he quit smoking). With a metal pinned back panel, likely to have had a support stick in place to make it move. With metal buttons in place and articulated legs and feet. A charming example with slight resemblance to figures in Bill Traylor paintings.


Size in inches: H 14 x W 3.5” x D 3”

Date: Early 20th Century
Condition: Aged


A naturally aged item that has stood the test of time, worn surface resulting is loss of painted surface and aged loss. There are loss paint marks to the inner legs and on one sections of the lower leg. This is an old item we guess over 80 to 100 years old so please expect this in the condition of the item. This item does not stand alone.
