Extremely rare musical doll by the Spanish manufacturer Florido, dating from the 1940s. This piece represents a clown with an expressive physiognomy, characteristic of the Madrid firm's high-end production during the post-war period.
History of the object: Florido was one of the most prestigious doll houses in Spain, noted for innovation in materials and the incorporation of sound mechanisms. This model combines the use of celluloid for the rigid parts with a body entirely covered in mohair, a high-quality natural fiber.
Technical details:
- Period: 1940s
- Technique: Molded and hand-painted celluloid; internal wind-up musical mechanism
- Dimensions: Height 36 cm (14.2 inches), Width 12 cm (4.7 inches)
- Materials: Celluloid, Mohair, Glass, Wool
- Condition: Excellent conservation of the musical mechanism. The fuchsia fabric collar shows natural wear and fraying due to the age of the textile. Original illustrated Florido box included, showing signs of use and fatigue on the cardboard.
Collection value: Object of great interest for specialists in vintage Spanish toys and collectors of musical automatons. The integrity of the celluloid parts and the functionality of the sound make it a museum-quality specimen.
