EJA Jumeau

Sold

Emily Hart Heirlooms

Presenting: French Bebe Antique Reproduction doll HEAD ONLY with earrings and necklace, originally made by Emile-Louis Jumeau in the years 1879-1882 and marked EJA . This head was very different from any previous or later Jumeau model, and it remains one of the rarest of the Jumeau dolls because it is only known to have been produced for three years. She has the most appealing soft demure look that I find very captivating.

This head is beautifully painted in 2013

YOU CAN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS FOR A VERY EARLY JUMEAU

Poured in "Lady White" fine porcelain and with many layers of China paint meticulously applied and firings in between each layer.

The skin tone is very lovely and pale and with eye shadow

She wears earrings of genuine Swarovski crystals and Swarovski glass pearls, and comes with matching necklace.

This head features the very finest French Paperweight hand blown solid glass eyes in “Hazel” color by HAND GLASS CRAFT OF ENGLAND

This head comes with fine mohair wig in bright Auburn color. Please note: this wig came with too much hair and approximately 1/3 of original hair has been carefully trimmed out.

Extra Fine Painting

She has a 12 inch head circumference

This head fits a 16.5 to17 inch French Child body to be a finished 21.5 to 22.5 inch doll.
