ANDRÉ THUILLIER BÉBÉ

This stunning bebe has come a long way from the dusty Baltimore attic that she called home for decades. Aren't you glad she decided to finally reveal herself?
We all know André Thuillier bebes are rare. What makes this striking seventeen inch example all the more desirable is the fact that she retains her original kid body with bisque arms, which are perfect by the way. You will see on her detail page, that the perfect pressed bisque head is impressed A6T, while the perfect bisque shoulder plate is impressed AT on one shoulder and 6 on the other. Further details include exceptionally dreamy paperweight eyes in a seductive shade of caramel (complete with spiral threading), plus beautifully painted lips, lashes and brows, pierced ears and a long blonde antique mohair wig.
The afore-mentioned kid body is in excellent condition, which may be partly explained by years of recumbent solitude.
Mademoiselle Thuillier has decided to make a brilliant comeback, and that would explain the exuberant red silk faille of her dress, with its red wool passementerie and lace embellishment. She wears a magnificent straw hat which is highlighted by billowing cream tulle and red chiffon, while more sedate dark brown leather shoes adorn her feet.
This fine bebe has been sequestered long enough – won't someone give her the warm "welcome home" she deserves?

BEBE JUMEAU

28" Bebe Jumeau – an especially lovely size 13 Long Face, or Triste model with classic modeling to her bisque head which does bear an old restoration, but does not affect the gorgeous facial features, forehead or neck. Further details include amazing, still exceptionally beautiful bisque, intense blue paperweight eyes highlighted by mauve shadow, and a fabulous long human hair wig in a flattering deep brown shade, styled in soft ringlets. Her classic straight-wrist body is in very good condition and retains an original paint finish.
Her bebe ensemble is stunning in printed silk, which features delicate stripes and a pleasing rose pattern. Abundant spring green velvet ribbon trim punctuates the entire piece, with ruched chiffon pitching in to soften the edges. A magnificent, wool, eyelet-edged hat with dramatic rose blossoms adds the perfect finishing touch to this exceptionally expressive survivor.
This Triste may look like a million dollars, but she'll cost you just a fraction of that!

BÉBÉ BRU

 

 

Looking rather like she should be part of mid-summer flower garden in riotous full bloom, is this twenty-one inch Bebe Bru marked upon her serene head Bru • Jne 7. Typically referred to as a "transitional" bebe as her lovely face is not all classic Bru Jeune – nor all classic Brevete, striking features include a gorgeous perfect bisque head and shoulder plate (also marked Bru Jne. – No.7), blue paperweight eyes in even eye cuts with mauve shadow accents, and a luxurious, blonde, antique mohair wig.
Her Bru-patented leather body, with perfect bisque arms, and lower gusseted leather legs is strong, although it does show a patch here and there.
Her brilliant ensemble incorporates classic Bru lines which showcase the bisque shoulderplate, while Napoleon III pink satin softened by creamy silk velvet add to the luxury. Accents of delicate lace provide the perfect touch not only to the dress, but to the matching bonnet as well, while antique brown leather Alart shoes are a perfect fit.
If you are a "Bru connoisseur", this doll is a definite must-have – Mademoiselle Bru says so herself!

PARIS BEBE

Measuring an impressive 27” tall, this fashionable French child is the distinctive Jumeau version of the
Paris Bebe. Features include a character-like modeled head with classic features, very nice bisque with lovely coloring, although there is a very faint hairline from the crown rim into the upper forehead, (entirely covered by the wig), stunning blue paperweight eyes, a wonderful mouth with lovely painting, a long, stylish antique mohair wig, pierced ears, and a jointed composition body with normal wear. She wears a most charming antique blouson-style bebe dress of rich cinnamon-colored "corduroy" with tiny black velvet stripes, that is set off by lovely ecru braid. Her fine, flower-enhanced, silk chapeau, lacy slip, stockings and fancy leather shoes are all antique.
A classic!

Bébé Jumeau

Who isn’t charmed by French bebes in their factory boxes?  Well, it’s easy to be charmed by this lovely example – a  23” Bebe Jumeau from the SFBJ-era of the Jumeau firm.  The very pretty doll is by Simon & Halbig, a 1039 mold complete with a paper label reading “Brevete” near her impressed markings.  Additional details include a perfect bisque head with brown glass flirty eyes featuring a full set of lashes, an open mouth with teeth, and the original, full, honey-blond human hair wig retaining its factory set.  She is fitted on a walking body, which when the legs are moved in a walking manner, it causes her head to turn from side to side, her arms move and she emits a soft cry.
What is most lovely to us is her very attractive pink silk ensemble, complete with its matching bonnet.  Of fluted organdy (very tender in places) with lace inserts and accents, what little girl or boy (even Mama and Papa) wouldn’t be enchanted when the box lid was lifted?  The icing on the cake must be her knitted stockings and size 8 Bebe Jumeau shoes in off white satin!
A premium boxed bebe!
