Handmade Quilted Doll 1940s Black Americana Faceless Mother and Baby

Rare one-of-a-kind handmade quilted mother and child doll from the 1940s era. Standing approximately 17 inches tall, this piece is a heavy-duty example of primitive folk art featuring a massive flared skirt crafted from thick hand-quilted utility fabrics. The patchwork features a combination of solid blue and floral prints likely salvaged from era-appropriate house dresses or cotton feedsacks. The mother figure features a faceless design in traditional folk style, wearing a primitive tignon headscarf and a floral neck wrap with original raw unfinished edges. In her arms she cradles a bundled baby that is permanently attached. Authentic vintage piece with genuine textile shattering and thinning on white utility cotton panels along with primitive fraying at quilted seams. Black fabric on face and hands remains in good condition. Sells as is. Exceptional addition for folk art collectors, Black Americana enthusiasts, or vintage doll displays.
