    She is unmarked but I believe she is French. Maybe Jumeau? solid dome head, paperweight eyes, full leather body, closed mouth, blonde hair. She came with a full French style outfit. Any detailed info would be greatly appreciated.

      She is German . I have never seen a bisque doll peel like her , It has to be a full repair was dome to her from under chin and whole shoulder plate . The shoulder plate is poor quality like a repair mixture . Take a photo of back of her neck and should plate ok . Sad but she is pretty much ruined , She is not a french fashion but is just dressed like one . Her body is typical German kid leather woman's body not a fashions body. Does her wig come off or is it glued on . If it come off please photo without it . It is not original wig . I can not imagine what happened to her as paint does not flake off bisque dolls so she had to be rebuilt by a doll hospital and did a poor job and repainted her lower face ? her bisque is so rough on face too and it would never have lumps on a antique bisque it should feel as smooth as glass .
