Most of the early doll heads made in Germany in the mid-19th century had black hair and blue eyes. Some doll heads made in the late 19th century had blond hair. Rare doll heads had brown hair or brown eyes. Almost all doll heads depicted women or girls. Few heads represented men or boys. China heads with glass eyes were also uncommon.
