Bru
French dolls have long been favorites of porcelain dollmakers, and some of the most darling
dolls for reproduction are the Bebe Brus. These dolls were adored by little girls 100 years ago
and are highly valued today. Bebe dolls were first made around 1875, with articulated,
unbreakable composition bodies proportional to a child's. This new doll was called Bebe, as
opposed to the fashion doll, Poupee.
Circle Dot Colombine

Striking facial features are the hallmark
of Circle Dot Bru. Easily recognized by
her full cheeks and protruding
open/closed mouth. Molded teeth
painted same color as mouth. Incised
with circle and dot. Pierced ears. White,

S.F.B,J,
The Societe Fran<;:aise de Fabrication de Bebes et Jouets (S.F.BJ.),
which means French Society for the Manufacture of Dolls and
Toys, was formed in 1899 to compete with German doll making
companies. Eight French doll and toy factories, including Jumeau
and Gaultier, comprised the Societe. Many of the molds used had
been created earlier by Jumeau. Some of the dolls made by S.F.BJ.,
including Joy, bear the UNIS France mark. The initials U. .IS
stand for Union ationale Inter-Syndicale.
