Large 21″ c.1870 Early Fashion Poupée by François Gaultier Closed Mouth – Paperweight Eyes – Cork PateGusseted Kid Lady Body Fabulous Outfit – Pierced Ears with EarringsCup-and-Saucer Neck Original Antique Doll – Made in France [ FEATURES AND DETAILS… ] Ooh là-là! This splendid, ravishing larger-size antique French fashion doll, with beautiful bisque and complexion, was produced c.1870 by François Gaultier in his factory near Paris. She stands approx. 21″ tall, and is marked “6” on the back of the head and the shoulders. She has a pale bisque swivel head on kid-edged bisque shoulder plate with blue-gray glass inset paperweight eyes, pierced ears, an amazing handmade Bramble & Pinegar blond curled-and-braided mohair wig (that frames her face beautifully) over cork pate, sturdy gusseted kid fashion body with shapely torso, and gusset-jointed limbs, stitched and separated fingers, and overall very good condition. She has exquisite face painting by the Gaultier artists: dark painted eye liner, finely painted lashes, delicately feathered brows, accented nostrils and eye corners, closed feminine mouth with accented lips, soft and even cheek color. She is dressed for a stroll on the boardwalk in a fabulous two-piece gown made of antique materials–mostly silk and lace–by a professional seamstress. It’s absolutely stunning! She has three-piece underwear consisting of a chemise and two under-slips. To top it off she has a lovely headpiece of delicate net with lace and floral accents. She is wearing freshwater pearl drop earrings and holding a lovely bouquet of waxed flowers. Photo props not included: DOLL STANDDon’t miss out on this incredible French mademoiselle! [ CONDITION… ] – Beautiful antique condition — from a non-smoking environment.- No cracks or hairlines found with the bisque after careful examination.- What might appear to be a flaw or repair over her right eye is not. It is from the factory–a tiny uneven spot in the eyeliner that was not corrected before the firing process, and someone added a bit of flesh-color paint so it would not be apparent. This is noticeable on close examination. See final photo for a closeup. – Her kid leather body is sturdy and in good condition with typical repairs as shown. Her left arm attachment is a bit tentative from age, so it should be handled with care. – Her fingers show age, but they are stable with no repairs. PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING. I’LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER. [ ALL ABOUT SHIPPING… ]DON’T OVERPAY FOR SHIPPING: U.S. purchasers, you can choose from various shipping options in this listing. Shipping costs vary dramatically depending on your Zip code, so choose the one that best suits your needs. I never inflate shipping to make hidden profits. If you believe the shipping is too high, please message me with your Zip code, and I’ll be glad to double-check it for you!SHIPPING UPGRADES: At our discretion, we may upgrade your shipping to a different service at no additional charge to you … provided it’s rated the same (or faster) than the service you chose. If you do not wish to have your shipping choice upgraded, please message me as soon as you complete your purchase. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: By default, international shipment is through eBay’s Global Shipping Program, which means the shipping rate (cost) is determined by eBay — outside my control. BUT … If you live in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, or U.K., message me to see whether there may be a cheaper alternative using Priority Post — depending on the size and value of your parcel. COMBINED SHIPPING: I will gladly combine shipping if you contact me and request a combined invoice before paying … and provided the items can travel safely in the same box. WHAT, NOTHING TO COMBINE!? Click here to visit my eBay store: “Saddle Mountain Treasures” (opens in a separate window/tab) … where you’ll find more top-quality antiques/collectibles/artwork/dolls/and more!- Significantly not as described: A major flaw or discrepancy vs. what was stated in the listing. [ RETURN POLICY ON DOLL LOTS… ]It is with deep regret that — after 14 years selling on eBay, and with 100% positive feedback — I’ve had to change my return policy on dolls to “NO RETURNS, AND NO PARTIAL REFUNDS.”As often happens, it’s the few bad apples out there who ruin it for the rest of us. These dishonest people will buy a doll, then try to improve or restore it … not knowing what they’re doing. And then, when they realize they’ve ruined the doll, they return it saying it was defective. Or else they keep the doll and demand a “partial refund” based on the alleged defect — which is another trending scam on eBay.I sell these dolls for a living so, my sincere apologies to you — the honest majority of eBay buyers — that I can no longer afford to accept doll returns. (Of course, shipping loss or damage is a different matter; that is fully covered by insurance.)BUT HAVING SAID ALL THAT …I do bend over backwards, attempting to disclose any noteworthy condition issues I can find or think of. But these are antique and vintage dolls — so, please understand that they won’t be in brand-new condition. There will always be some minor indication of their age, and it would be impossible to itemize every single pinhead-size stain on the outfit, or hairline scratch on the body. Please expect these types of conditions with old dolls. [Blurb required by eBay for cell phone users:] *** PLEASE VIEW THE FULL DESCRIPTION BEFORE BIDDING. IT CONTAINS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
