My new 'legs'

Have you seen my legs yet, well not my own, but the one's that I purchased from a table top sale the other week.


Back view Front view

Her body is made from calico, she is stuffed with what feels like wood shavings, her legs are molded flesh coloured porcelain and her shoes have painted on with a gold glaze.
They were a bargin I paid just a few pounds for them, I wish I could renew my own with a pair like this.Has anyone any ideas when they were made? what era I was thinking maybe 1950's.

I have been bashing on about these legs being female but I know men with legs just as good as these so who knows...... I may be making a big mistake.

The only thing is I have no idea what to do with them now I have them, maybe I'll ebay them at a later date, if I don't get a brain wave in the near future.

  1. I would have brought those legs and then wondered what to do with them! Pleased I am not alone. Maybe the legs would love to belong to a head and arms and have been waiting for you to come along and give them another chance. Go do it. x
