Posted 16 years ago

Hi I am new here, need so help please.

These are from my great great aunt she traveled the orient around 1900- 1930.

Thank You very much

The larger ones look like they might be Ada Lum dolls. Have you looked for any marks? I would even look on their feet.

Efectivamente son muñecas de tejido Ada Lum, Shanghai, aunque empezó a fabricar antes de forma privada, la producción se realiza con éxito en los años 40. Hay mucha información en Internet, buscando por Ada Lum dolls.
