Hi Gary,
Most china dolls’ heads that are an inch or less in diameter date from the period c. 1860-c. 1900. Many were imported cheaply from Germany. If yours is a small one it’s probably from about that time. I wonder what else you might find in your garden!
Best,
Tom
My partner has just unearthed a small clay dolls head in our garden.
We live in a cottage built in 1836 do you think this head comes from this era?
