HANNAH K., 2009

Greiner Doll based on original patented in the 1850s.

This reproduction maché-head Greiner is 27 inches tall, circa 1850. Hannah K. is a young black lady dressed in reproduction mid-1800’s calico in rusted browns and reds and trimmed with vintage lace. Her painted-on stockings are orange and white striped, along with her painted-on shoe boots.

I’ve sewn her a Kinsale cape. Around her neck is a mixed-media charm displaying a reproduction maché Frozen Charlotte.
