Rare 9 Kestner Angel Doll Closed Mouth Christmas Store Display 24K Wings Staff
Early 9 Kestner closed mouth Christmas Angel Doll made for the French market. I was told these models with one piece angel bodies were made as store display models at Christmas. The sweet angel has blue glass paper weight set eyes with heavy feathered brows and closed mouth. She looks as if she is Blowing A Kiss! Her bisque head has no damage, no chips, cracks, marked only 4. Her hand made curly mohair wig is platinum blonde, I believe it is original to her. She has the most beautiful composition wings that are 24K gold leaf with a wooden staff also covered in gold leaf. The finish on the wings had worn so I had them covered in the gold leaf to show the fine detail they had. She came to me wearing this red silk ribbon that does show some age related wear. She does not look like she was ever played with, her wig looks great and ribbon still tied on her. Wonderfully detailed composition angel body has bent arms, no chips or beaks, there are a few crazing lines in her arms. The angel doll was restrung, her old stringing had broken from age. She is uniquely strung with her wings attached with wires thru the holes in her back. Her stand looks original with metal post that fits perfectly into her wing hole so she can hang to fly. There are a couple ways to suspend her from the stand, one she stands more upright and if you insert the post further she does lay more horizontal to fly. This is a very rare Kestner Doll. I have seen a similar Christmas Angel only once in The Glow Christmas collectors magazine. She is very collectable for both Doll and Christmas Collectors.

Just a fantastic find for any doll collection… Measuring about 26 tall. (see 8th photo with ruler) this darling, early plastic KEWPIE doll has huge side-glancing painted eyes , small pug nose, closed smiling mouth, blushed cheeks and strung arms with perfect “starfish” shaped, chubby hands and straight legs molded together with flat feet covered by his original blue, silk-type slippers. He has adorable molded and detailed wings at his shoulders and is signed on his back. Within a raised triangle & rising sun motif, Made in Japan in raised letters, possibly for Kokusai, Tokyo. Kewpie has molded tufts of hair over each ear, at the back and topknot with good detail. He was wearing an over-size, child’s, vintage gown and bonnet when found and has been lovingly redressed in this absolutely adorable, infant size, rose flowered onesie (with the snap closure tucked underneath). His arms will need to be restrung as the original stringing elastic has disintegrated. He has no cracks or breaks although there are several areas of original or very old re-glue on a few seams. Although his silk slippers have never been removed there may be a small chip on one foot, original to his manufacture. He has been well cared for and absolutely amazing to think that he has survived for all these years.

Okay, so I acquired this angel wing set in a trade many years ago. They’re huge, life-sized feathery wings that were used as a store display in Victoria’s secret. I always intended to keep this as an amazing center piece to customize and hang on a high ceiling wall, but that’s just not in the cards at the moment. They are made from a very heavy, sturdy styrofoam and covered with large white feathers. The two wings connect with a metal plate covered in fluff with four prongs that plug into the wings. There are two heavy plastic wire loops attached to the plate which, due to placement, I’m assuming meant this display was intended to be hung against a wall. These are much too heavy to be used on a person or a mannequin, tho I’m pretty sure they could be properly customized and adapted for such use if truly desired. Tho there are no logos or tags, this is indeed an authentic, vintage, Victoria’s Secret display prop from the 90s. The item “Vintage Victoria’s Secret Angel Wings Store Display Prop Victorias Secret 1990s” is in sale since Thursday, July 27, 2017. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Advertising\Merchandise & Memorabilia\Store Displays”. The seller is “iyashii” and is located in Columbus, Georgia.
