19 DEP Jumeau French German Decadent Mariner Costume
Really lovely DEP jumeau 19. I suspect she is German, her body is German, not French. In either case she is a darling. I’ve had this doll at least 10 years. I never expected her to have a hairline, but it looks like she may have had a forehead hairline repair when I backlit her. I didn’t know what to look for years ago. Her forehead APPEARS flawless from the outside. Her stationary eyes are antique, really beautiful. She wears an antique strawberry blond human hair wig in braids. She has no earring chips, wears new Swarovski glass earrings that match her costume. Unfortunately her compo body appears completely repainted but is strung tightly. She is also missing a piece of her left thumb. The good news is her 4 piece mariner costume from Gabriella is irredescent navy silk – really stunning. She wears vintage full slip and matching pantaloons. Socks are old, leather shoes are repro but really well done and match perfectly. She comes with stand and is display ready. I’ve taken into account her flaws when pricing her, she really is a stunner!
