All three of these dolls are from my collection, purchased on Ebay during 2001,2002. These little girls are similar to the one in Frame Folk and Foreign Costume Dolls p. 30. The one photographed in that book is holding a large clay pot on her head. They are distinguished by the 7 skirts they wear.

They are called Girl of Nazare
