Antique French Bed Doll
"Blonde"
Item Number C33108
French bed dolls were not made for play....well, not for little girls' play....
and were used to adorn a freshly made bed in a grown-up girl's boudoir.
Absolutely charming French bed doll with real eyelashes has been lovingly restored but still needs a new wig and a frilly dress to be presentable. Lovely details complete her look, including eyelashes, shadow and a "come hither" little beauty mark a-la Marilyn Monroe. Her fabric body is finished with composite lower arms and hands that show some age crazing, and high-heel be-decked composite feet. A small paint flake on a shoe and a short, 1/2" open seam are the only flaws.
She needs a dress...nothing but the frothiest and frilliest will do for this très beau darling! Very French. Very feminine. Offered as found, in excellent condition. c.1900 - 1930's 27" tall
