Presenting: EXTRA SPECIAL French Bébé Antique Reproduction doll, marked Bru jne 13

Poured in fine Bell “Azure White” porcelain and with many layers of China paint meticulously applied and firings in between each layer. Painted in January of 2022

She wears gorgeous earrings and necklace of Genuine Swarovski Crystals.

This head was painted for my own personal collection.

She features very finest French Paperweight hand blown solid glass eyes in “Blue/grey” color by Hand Glass Craft of England, the finest eyes available, and the closest color to the Antique Bru dolls eyes.

Her wig is finest Human Hair in extra long length with bangs and soft curls in Light Brown color.

She is on a fine composition body with bru lower arms, hand-made by Jim Vickerman painted in latex paint. Please note hand made bodies may have slight imperfections.

She wears a dusty peach color dress made from Vintage 100% silk. The main lightweight silk crepe fabric along with the attached laces was part of an Antique boudoir gown.

The back of the dress and bonnet are new pure silk taffeta fabric. Embellished with her signature silk ribbon flowers, vines and leaves, this is a Mary Lambeth costume adorned with lovely Genuine Antique laces. Dress and bonnet are lined in 100% cotton fabric.

Mary Lambeth passed to spirit in September of 2022, she left a legacy of the most wonderful Antique reproduction doll clothing that no one has ever managed to surpass in my opinion. It was a great honor to work with her dressing my dolls for many years.

Her undergarments consist of 100% cotton bloomers and half-slip trimmed in beautiful Antique laces.

Socks are hand knitted silk/rayon and shoes in the French style are made with silk taffeta to match her dress, with leather soles.

This doll is 21 inches tall and 24.5 inches including the bonnet brim.
