Thank you, S.

Bebe Jumeau

Now here is a great doll for you -- an especially gorgeous Bebe Jumeau 11 Long Face, or Triste model with exquisite modeling that will make any collector of fine French bebes very happy, indeed. Standing twenty-four inches tall (an unusual smaller model), details include exceptionally luminous perfect bisque, exquisite painting, deep blue paperweight eyes (inherent mold line in inner coner of right eye) highlighted by abundant mauve shadow, applied pierced ears and a fabulous, long blonde mohair wig styled in soft ringlets.
Her classic straight-wrist body is in good condition and retains an original paint finish, save for an old over paint of the arms and a bit more at the knee joints.
Mlle. is sweetly costumed in a delightful blue and white printed cotton mariner-style dress, which is paired with a classic navy wool sailor tam. Bebe Jumeau shoes in her size complete the look.
This Triste may look like a million dollars, but she'll cost you just a fraction of that!

Standing twenty-one inches tall, details include a perfect head that is marked Bru Jne. R. 10, deep brown paperweight eyes with beautifully painted lashes and brows, a closed mouth that features a definite smile, pierced ears and an auburn human hair wig in a classic style.
On a jointed composition body that does exhibit some repair and in-painting (but very well done) Miss Bru wears a fabulous original dress in ruched silk (tenderness in areas) and abundant lace. An overscale hair bow and marvelous antique Alart shoes complete the look.

For the lovers of the early dolls from Maison Jumeau, we have a special bebe here, just for you! This Second Series Portrait model, who stands seventeen and one-half inches tall, is impressed 8 low on the neck of her perfect bisque head. Additional details include applied ears, lovely coloring with equally lovely painting of lashes, brows and lips. Pale blue threaded paperweight eyes are highlighted by mauve shadow, and her blonde mohair wig is styled in full soft curls.
On the early style eight ball jointed body, it retains the original finish and is complete with a blue Jumeau "Médaille d'Or" stamp. There appears to be some paint refreshing to wear on the fingers of both hands, but the work is quite subtle.
This bebe could not ask for a more elegant ensemble! Rich buttery gold brocade makes up the classic pleated skirt and placket, while deep golden silk faille was used to create the jacket. Passementerie in the deep gold shade accents both pieces, to create a truly luxurious effect, while lace softens here and there. A matching chapeau and antique brown leather bebe-style shoes are the icing on the cake.
