What a lovely and serene expression this Bébé Rabery & Delphieu possesses! We have an opportunity here for the sympathetic collector to acquire a classic French Bébé at a very reasonable price due to a hairline on her upper right forehead that runs from the crown of her head to mid forehead. Further details of this substantially sized girl include gorgeous pale bisque, lovely, bulbous, brown paperweight eyes with subtle mauve shadow, delicately painted and shaded lips, pierced ears, and an auburn human hair wig that is styled in soft curls.
Mlle. Rabery-Delphieu is on a jointed wood and composition body with straight wrists with the original finish showing normal wear (particularly to fingertips).
Her antique dress of fine, dotted Swiss cotton features an integrated periwinkle blue silk underdress, shawl collar, puffed sleeves, lace insets and a pleated blue silk sash. A coordinating chapeau, and embroidered blue silk shoes over long cream stockings only add to this Bébé’s already boundless appeal! Head Incised: R4D
Measures: 28 3/4” tall
