There are no breaks, repairs, hairlines, wig pulls or cracks to her head but one earlobe has a small chip (typical). She has a slight tongue tip in her slightly parted lips. She has lovely bulbous brown eyes that give her a surprised look. She has cork pate and antique stabilized blonde mohair wig.
Her body is original and is the early type kid. There is patching here and there which is typical but nothing major and she is not leaking any sawdust.
She has jointed arms that have wear in the upper leather part and her right hand has been reglued. I did not mess with it. You could probably replace it or get it repaired but I preferred to leave intact as is. Looks worse closeup than in person.
She wears batiste underclothing trimmed with old cotton lace. She wears a copy of a typical Bru costume that I made for using old silk. She has a matching bonnet of the same fabric plus old velvet ribbon. The early dresses were not all froufrou so I make my costumes as original as possible. Finally she wears cotton lace socks and French style shoes I copied from a set of Bru original shoes.The ones in the closeup photo with the hat are the shoes that will go with her.
