By Florence Theriault. In 1870, Leon Casimir Bru described his wooden-bodied poupee as having “a fully perfected grace.” It is a phrase that aptly describes the entire world of the French fashion doll from 1850–1880. This beautiful hardbound book, with 260 color photographs, gives the reader a detailed glimpse into the world of fashion dolls during this period. Including furniture, accessories, chronologies, patents and lists of shops, makers, and body styles. 10" x 10". SKU: BT-164 Show more
