Emily Hart, Grandmaster of Dollmaking, is an Artist earning her living through making and selling porcelain dolls.

Presenting:

Rare French Bébé Reproduction porcelain doll marked 5 H

This extraordinary beauty remained a mystery for many years. But in 1989 The French doll Expert Francois Theimer unveiled her history. Her creator was Aristide Marcellin Halopeau. The Halopeau heads were introduced in the year 1882 and manufactured by the Frayon firm of Montreuil. These dolls were only produced until 1889 therefore very few of the Antique dolls can be found today.

She was painted in 2019

She wears a pale blue pure silk Shantung dress & bonnet embellished with exquisite delicate Antique reproduction laces from France & handmade velvet flowers.

The wired bonnet features complex style with triple-loop Rayon Satin bow, matching French lace, and more flowers.

This costume was designed and made entirely by Emily Hart to closely resemble an Antique Halopeau Bebe costume featured in the Book “The Doll AS Art, by Stuart Holbrook.

The bonnet is lined in a light-weight pure silk jacquard-woven paisley design fabric.
