This authentic Peggy Nisbet historical portrait doll, model P/458, beautifully represents King Louis XVI. Handcrafted in England during the late 1960s to early 1970s, this 8.5-inch doll is part of the esteemed Portrait Range, known for its focus on royal figures and intricate costume detail. The King is dressed in an elaborate cream-colored period ensemble featuring delicate pink floral embroidery on the lapels and cuffs, accented by a distinctive royal blue sash. He is draped in a heavy, majestic purple velvet cape with a plush white faux-fur trim, capturing the opulence of the French Bourbon court.
This collectible features a hard plastic body and comes with its signature heart-shaped foot stand for easy display.

These dolls were primarily aimed at adult collectors and are prized for their historical accuracy and the craftsmanship of their high-quality fabric costumes. This piece is a perfect addition for fans of French history, royal family memorabilia, or serious Peggy Nisbet collectors.
This item is vintage, approximately 50 to 60 years old. While it appears to be in very good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw, I would reach out prior to sending it.
