Vintage Green and Gold Porcelain Swinging Clown Doll
$33.00
Vintage Green and Gold Porcelain Swinging Clown Doll. Measures about 13" while sitting, 20" stretched out and hangs 31". Very good condition. Has some paint loss on nose.
Add a touch of kinetic whimsy to your space with this vintage porcelain swinging clown doll. Measuring approximately 13 inches while seated and hanging to a total length of 31 inches, this piece is a classic example of the decorative porcelain dolls that became a staple of 1980s and 90s "The Playhouse" aesthetics. The doll features a finely crafted porcelain head with a joyful expression, high-arched eyebrows, and a festive red nose. Its costume is a high-shine celebration of textures, combining shimmering gold and silver sequins with a satin-finish shirt adorned with gold stars.
The doll is permanently fixed to a small wooden trapeze-style swing, allowing it to gently sway when displayed from a ceiling hook or high shelf. This movement, combined with the glitter of the green sequined shoes, makes it a dynamic focal point for a nostalgic nursery or a creative studio. While there is a small amount of paint loss on the tip of the nose, the overall condition is very good, with the sequin work and porcelain remaining bright and intact. It serves as a charming reminder of the era's fascination with harlequin and circus-themed decor, ready to bring a dash of sparkling personality to a new curated collection.
This item is vintage, approximately 35 years old.
