These two dolls look like they come from the same company. I know the doll with the with light eyes was from Ashton Drake at one time. Very heavy porcelain on both. The one with light eyes was called Cute as a button with 2-pc outfit. Artist was Titus Tomehu and the one with green eyes has auburn hair 1995 m81 or mB1 on neck by Elre Hutchehs?
This doll is approx 21". She has a country girl look with straw hat, purse w/goose, hair brown, blue eyes and braided hair with flowers. name:Penny from Emerald Doll Collection. 2000 edition, Rich Imports, In
This is are items which my mother has had for 40+ years. They are all part of what made up our living room furniture. They items have primarly been in our home on display (rarely used). All items have a gold color (not sure what the material is) and are very heavy. The condition of the items are above average. There is also a dresser with mirrors and a chest that are just as old and heavy as well.
Found this painting in an old house my mother was going to move into. Its of a pretty flower in a paleish mustard color frame and a signature on the back of it was signed Vernon Ward with the title Summers Gold. I looked him up online and he was a famous painter born in the late 1800's and died in the 1950s. I have looked at auctions online for his paintings and none of the paintings i saw were this one. When i did an image search on Google there was only ONE picture of it and it was NOT one that i had posted on the internet anywhere. Someone please help me to identify if this was a real painting done by Vernon Ward or if it was forged.
