Antique ABG German Shoulder Head Doll — Blonde, 25"
A large and highly expressive antique German doll by Alt, Beck & Gottschalck (ABG), featuring a porcelain shoulder head with beautifully molded blonde hair. Standing an impressive 25 inches (approximately 63.5 cm) tall, she has a substantial weight and wonderful presence, making her equally striking in a serious collection or as an exceptional display piece.
Her porcelain head is beautifully modeled and delicately painted, with blue eyes, softly blushed cheeks, and carefully sculpted blonde curls. Her serene, slightly contemplative expression gives the doll a distinctive and appealing character.
The doll has a firmly stuffed cloth body with porcelain arms and legs. Her substantial construction gives her the weight and presence expected from a large antique doll of this type.
Condition
The doll is in excellent antique condition. There is a small crack on the back of the shoulder plate. Otherwise, she has been beautifully preserved for her age. Please review the photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
Clothing
Her clothing deserves special attention. She is beautifully dressed in a deep red blouse with green trousers, a combination that complements her blonde hair and delicate porcelain coloring exceptionally well.
She also comes with an elegant second outfit featuring a floral pattern and soft pink detailing, offering an entirely different presentation.

About the Creator / Gallery
Meet Yana Lamar
I am Yana Lamar, a collector and restorer who turned a late‑found curiosity for dolls into a carefully curated gallery of antique characters.
I seek dolls that carry quiet stories — France, German, Japan, American - bisque girls, shy companions from attics and trunks — and give them a second life with gentle restoration instead of perfection.
In this online boutique you will not find mass‑market pieces, only a small rotating collection chosen for their personality, history, and the feeling they bring into a room.
Whispers from Collectors
Thoughtful words from people who welcomed these antique souls into their homes.
“Opening the parcel felt like opening a century‑old storybook. The doll is even more delicate and expressive in person than in the photos, and the description was absolutely accurate. Packaging was careful and elegant, so she arrived safely despite the long journey.”
Anna M., United States
“I have collected antique dolls for over twenty years, and this is one of the most thoughtfully curated boutiques I have come across. Yana answered all my questions with patience and sent extra close‑up photos before I decided. You can feel real love for dolls behind every detail.”
Claire R., France
“The moment I saw my doll on the website, I knew she was special. In real life, her presence is incredible — soft, quiet, and full of character. The outfit is beautifully coordinated, and I appreciate the honest notes about her age and restoration.”
Elena S., Italy
“This was my first antique doll purchase, and I was a little nervous. The entire process was gentle and reassuring: clear communication, transparent condition report, and shipping updates all the way. When I unboxed her, I felt like welcoming an old friend home.”
Julia K., United States
“Every time I visit this gallery, there is something unique and soulful to discover. The dolls, accessories, and rare treasures are presented with such sensitivity that it feels more like an art collection than a shop. I am already looking forward to my next adoption.”
Margaret L., United Kingdom
