This is a vintage, handcrafted doll, likely from Cuba, often referred to as a "Bamb?" doll due to its construction. The doll features a wooden head with painted facial features, including large eyes, eyebrows, and red lips. Its body is constructed from tightly wrapped pink fabric, creating a slender torso and limbs. The doll is adorned with a straw hat with a black and silver woven band, a black bikini bottom, and a decorative bikini top resembling woven reeds or similar natural material. Its dark, braided hair cascades down its shoulders. The doll stands on a polished wooden base with a brass plaque that reads "Cubo". These dolls were popular souvenirs and decorative items, often depicting women in beach attire, reflecting a tropical aesthetic. The "Cubo" marking suggests a possible maker or origin.
