18 1/2" (47 cm) Fabulous Rare Fully Original Early Bru Fashion with charming "Mona Lisa" smile.

Wonderful early poupee made by the famous French Bru doll manufacturer, circa 1860!
Her bisque is very light, painting is superb and very precise. She has her original pale blonde mohair wig and cork pate, cobalt blue stationary glass eyes, light brown finely lined eyebrows, closed mouth, delicate pink tinting and shapely outlining, pierced-in ears, pale bisque with pink cheek coloring, swivel neck on shoulderplate.
The doll elegantly costumed with fine original silk dress, underwear, original black shoes and socks, velvet hat.

The doll marks "5" on the head.

Condition - she has two hairlines (please look the last photo).
The first one on the right side of temple and another one on the right cheek. There are very tiny and visible only under the strong light.
No any restoration, her painting is original.
Great bisque shoulder plate with no hairlines, cracks or chips. The leather body appear to be very clean in good condition.
THE DOG IS NOT INCLUDING!

She is 18 1/2" (47 cm)
Paris, c.1860.

Fabulous poupee for a discriminating collector!
