Huge French Fashion Bisque Doll Jumeau? Wood Arms 30"NR

 My mother and I started doll collecting in the early 1970's in Germany. She was well known in her native Hannover as "the doll lady". To the best of my knowledge she even coined the word still used in Germany for antique dolls "Porzellankopfpuppen" = Porcelain head dolls, when she needed a short and descriptive catchword  advertising in the local newspaper. She bought many of her dolls from the original owners, getting to them by tram because she did not have a driver's license. My mom is now in her mid 80s and we decided to slowly part with some of the dolls. I used to go "doll hunting" with her when I was a kid and so know a little about the field, but I am not at all an expert, she was always the main collector. So please contact me if  you need more information or photos or if you notice I made a mistake in the description.
One more note: These doll have not been "prettied up", they come mostly with the wigs and outfits my mom bought them decades ago, just now taken out of storage.

Here I am offering one of our nicest and for sure the biggest French fashion doll from our collection. This is a real beauty, very high quality bisque and a wonderful and rare leather body with wooden arms.  Look at the individual toes!
The doll is all original and untouched. Comes with her cork plate and a wig that seams to be newer. Original under pants and "leggings" (very nice lace type). I am very proud of the dress, I made it myself without any pattern, was a birthday gift for my mom over 20 years ago.

I'll be happy to send you more photos, could not add more to this listing.

Size: 30" high, more if you calculate the wig and hat.

Markings: I could not find any except "10." on the back of the head, I assume that is the size. As far as I can tell she is by Jumeau. F.G. would also be a possibility.

Condition: Excellent antique condition. The head has not cracks or hairlines. Fine quality bisque. Could use a light clean. Good condition body with some paint loss on wooden arms and hands.

Shipping  $35 to the US by expedited parcel with minimal insurance only included.  I could also ship by FedEx or UPS (buyer's choice and cost).

Please  my other listings for more dolls from our collection, I am always happy to combine shipping or to do a layaway.

Of cause I do accept returns if I made a mistake and overlooked something significant.
