Georges CORDONNIER and Marie RADIGUET. On 16 January 1880, Georges CORDONNIER registered a patent in Paris for a statuette doll. This very special model is of high quality. First of all the biscuit parts: head, female bust, arms of 2 different shapes and legs. Underneath the heels, there are two pins that allow the doll to be fixed to a base. Once fixed, this straight body made of extremely fine skin could be dressed in theatrical silk clothes, often in the style of the 18th century. These garments were designed and made by Marie RADIGUET, Georges CORDONNIER's partner. Production was limited in time, which means that today this doll is rarely found in high quality collections! That's saying a lot! Today, we're delighted to present you with a model from an attic that's been lying dormant for almost 150 years! Expert: Jean Claude Cazenave. Paris. Very well preserved, it is in a beautiful state of use with its biscuit parts perfectly preserved (which is essential). This doll is virtually unique and will join a great collection. Don't let it slip away! Height: 40.5 cm.
