2010

A French Paris Bebe Bisque Head Doll by Daniel et Cie, with large blue glass eyes, blond wig, pierced ear, printed in red to the back of the neck 'Paris-Bebe 7', wearing a cream silk dress with lace mount, undergarments and brown boots impressed 'Paris Bebe' and straw boater, on a composition jointed body, 41cm, in a white card box, labelled 'The Crown Perfumery Company, Bond Street'

In 1890 Jumeau sued Daniel et Cie for copyright infringement, which Jumeau won causing all Daniels' moulds to be destroyed, therefore the Paris-Bebe is an important part of doll history and not found in great numbers

Estimated at £2,500 - £3,500


 

Eyes possibly reglued, as glue marks evident around the eyeline.  Both pierced ears chipped, white blemish behind one ear, cork head taped on, body scuffed, finger ends missing/scuffed, wearing Paris Bebe shoes, dress worn and shredding. - see extra images.
