Antiques : Dolls : French Bisque

 

French poured bisque socket head with large brown paperweight eyes, painted upper and lower lashes, heavy feathered brows, beautifully accented lips, molded pierced ears, open mouth with molded upper teeth, incised "1907 / 16".

Beautiful, fully jointed wood and composition Jumeau body with jointed wrists, and original finish, marked "15" on the soles of the feet. Though the head fits perfectly in the neck socket, the body may be a replacement. We have priced the doll accordingly and also welcome offers. French human hair wig in long ringlets over cork pate.

Gorgeous French costume of Broderie Anglaise consisting of matching cape and front buttoning dress with cap sleeves and beautiful inverted pleats in princess form, antique bonnet with trims, and original Bebe corset and side buttoning drawers, newer stockings and shoes.

Condition is excellent. The bisque is of the highest quality, with exceptional artistry in the painted features. There are no cracks, chips, or repairs and only a tiny (barely noticeable) flake to the right earring hole. Body shows light wear and very light touch-up to the hands; much better than French bodies are usually found.

This is a stunning large Bebe with gorgeous bisque and is beautifully dressed and ready to display. The exceptionally large size of this Bebe makes this a truly fabulous find.
