Antique C.M. Bergmann German Bisque Boy Doll — 22”
A wonderfully expressive antique German C.M. Bergmann boy doll, standing 22 inches (approximately 56 cm) tall. He has a remarkably pleasant and gentle face with large brown glass eyes, softly blushed cheeks, finely painted eyebrows, and a slightly open mouth with visible teeth. His expression is both serious and endearingly childlike.
The bisque head is well preserved, with a few age-related imperfections that should be noted. There are small superficial paint flakes on the nose and forehead, as well as small cracks at the corners of the mouth. The illuminated photographs provide a particularly detailed view of the bisque head, allowing these condition details to be examined carefully.
Otherwise, the doll is in excellent antique condition. His beautiful brown glass eyes retain their deep color and lively expression, while the short brown wig complements his charming boyish appearance.
Clothing
His clothing deserves special attention. He is dressed in a charming gray period-style ensemble featuring a jacket with two rows of gold-tone buttons, loose trousers, a matching beret, dark stockings, and boots. A belt with a buckle completes his distinctive little gentleman appearance.

Where Every Doll Carries a Story
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.
