Description
Up for your consideration and offered with NO RESERVE and with a special "BUY IT NOW!" with "BEST OFFER" option is an absolutely MAGNIFICENT and ALL ORIGINAL 17" ANTIQUE FRENCH FASHION DOLL! Attributed to the JUMEAU factory, although unmarked, this FABULOUS POUPEE is of MUSEUM QUALITY with her ORIGINAL blonde mohair wig and pate, LUMINOUS SPIRAL pale blue paperweight eyes and PORTRAIT-LIKE face, including MAUVE EYESHADOWING and FEATHERED EYEBROWS------a MUST for the DISCERNING COLLECTOR of French Fashions! She is wearing an EXQUISITE two piece PROMENADE SUIT of a muted turquoise moire tafetta with black velvet trim, embellished with cream lace inserts at the bodice and sleeves, complete with a BUSTLE and slight TRAIN, and fastening in the back with HOOK and EYE enclosures! There are LAYERS of ORIGINAL and MATCHING antique cream cotton undergarments (just like we LOVE to get them!) consisting of a full CHEMISE, a wonderful billowy HALF SLIP, and matching lace trimmed PANTALOONS! She has the most ENCHANTING pair of antique cotton Fashion stockings that are red and white striped (like a holiday Candy Cane!) and the most PRECIOUS pair of RED LEATHER fashion slippers marked with a "3" on the bottom soles! To complete her outfit, she has the most FABULOUS matching antique felt light turquoise chapeau trimmed with bunches of coordinating silk flowers and ribbon-----a MILLINER'S DREAM! In one PIERCED EAR she has a single ORIGINAL white milk glass antique earring, and wears the most WONDERFUL pair of HARD TO FIND long antique black lace FINGERLESS GLOVES, and in her hand she carries an old black leather clutch type purse with a lace hankie----the PERFECT ACCESSORIES to top off her AMAZING ENSEMBLE! She has her ORIGINAL cork pate and light blonde mohair wig, and although scarce, still frames her face BEAUTIFULLY! Her BULBOUS blue paperweight eyes have early THREADED SPIRALING, rendering a pensive and LUMINOUS quality! Her bisque is SUPERB; a PORTRAIT LIKE PRESENCE with a pale luminescent appeal, including MAUVE EYESHADOWING and individually painted eyelashes and FEATHERED EYEBROWS----one of the most BEAUTIFUL Jumeau Fashions we have had the pleasure of offering! Her bisque head and shoulderplate are unmarked, indicative of an earlier fashion, and she does not appear to have any hairlines, chips, cracks or restorations; just PERFECT! Her original ALL KID BODY is FULLY GUSSETED with individually stitched and wired fingers and toes; we have not removed all of her clothing for fear of comprising her ORIGINALITY, but after a painstaking process of taking off her pantaloons and one of her shoes and socks, we can see how FABULOUSLY PRESERVED her leather is, with no apparent repairs or patches! This MAGNIFICENT and RARE ALL ORIGINAL 17" ANTIQUE JUMEAU FASHION is being offered for your consideration in anticipation of the upcoming holidays with NO RESERVE and with a special "BUY IT NOW" with "BEST OFFER" option; an absolute MUSEUM QUALITY Poupee for the most SEASONED COLLECTOR!
