Laughing Jumeau Model # 203

Much of the charm of Jumeau dolls lay in their elaborate underclothing, dresses, hats, shoes, and jewelry. Their wardrobes and accessories played an important part in the success of the company. This doll is in her original velvet dress of soft green with floral embroidery. She wears a large brim hat that compliments her dress and jacket.

“The Jumeau Doll” written by Margaret Whitton and published by The Margaret Woodbury Strong Museum in 1980 provides a comprehensive overview of Jumeau and The Strong’s Jumeau collection.
