An elegant and highly collectible porcelain doll by Marin Chiclana, representing an aristocratic lady of the 18th century Versailles court.
This piece belongs to a limited historical series, distinguished from the brand’s more common plastic figures by its porcelain construction, giving it a finer presence, more delicate facial expression, and a noticeably elevated collectible value.
The doll is dressed in a richly detailed period gown in soft blush and ivory tones, with woven patterns, lace trims, and gold decorative elements. Her elaborate powdered hairstyle, adorned with lace and feather detail, reflects the refined aesthetics of the French court of the XVIII century.
Presented on an original wooden base with engraved plaque “Versailles Siglo XVIII”, this piece is designed for display and brings a strong decorative and historical presence to any interior or collection.
