RARE Montastiers & Perier Marked Doll Full Body Porcelain Bisque Ball Jointed

Extremely rare find! Unbelievable condition! Marked Montastier & Perier, this stunning antique doll features a full body of either bisque or porcelain—no cloth or plastic parts. She is fully jointed at the knees and elbows, typical of late 19th to early 20th-century craftsmanship, allowing lifelike poseability. Her details are exquisite: hand-painted facial features, long dark hair (needs brushing), and finely sculpted creases in her limbs. The neck is marked M.R. 74, likely referencing the mold number. Montastier & Perier dolls are known for their artistic merit and rarity, making this piece highly collectible. The doll is in exceptional condition with no cracks or breaks, just a tiny chip at the wrist joint (see photo). She comes with a complete Victorian Renaissance outfit (removed for photos), including a dress, slip, knickers, tights, shoes, and bonnet. A rare, beautifully preserved example of antique French dollmaking. Please see all photos as they are considered part of the item description.
