DOLL #6 - Antique Bisque Doll
Antique Bisque Doll with Brown/Black Hair and Pink & White Striped Costume
This 17-inch antique bisque doll features brown sleep eyes, delicately painted facial details, an open mouth with visible teeth, and a brown-to-black wig. She is dressed in a charming pink and white vertically striped outfit with period styling that reflects the elegance of the early twentieth century. The doll displays fine craftsmanship and a pleasing expression, making her an attractive example of antique European doll-making.
Family records previously identified this doll as a Jumeau dating to approximately 1907, although that attribution has not been independently verified. The doll has undergone restoration, including reported repairs to the head and forehead, along with a small breakthrough repair in the lip area. She presents well overall and remains an appealing display piece. Documentation indicates the doll was purchased on eBay in 2010 for approximately $360.
