Woman of Royalty 2005 EMPRESS JOSEPHINE BARBIE DOLL GOLD LABEL MATTEL NRFB. Only 25,00 produced. Empress Josephine is Mint. The box has tiny white spots where the paint is chipped. Please check the detailed photos. There is some wear on the top corner, see last photo, please.

This Barbie doll has never been removed from her box and is lovely. She wears an extraordinary empire-style gown, created of satin and embellished with golden braid and fringe, and matched with a rich red, velvet robe lined with extravagant faux ermine. Faux pear jewelry suite and silvery crown and tiara set with crystals are fit for a queen!

Empress Josephine was the great love of Napoleon Bonaparte and adored by the people of France. She was born in 1763.
Tragically, Josephine could not give her husband an heir, and he was forced to annul their marriage, even though, Napoleon's great love never waned. Upon hearing of her death, he wrote "Josephine is the only woman I have ever truly loved. She reigns in my heart and I mourn for her."

 I am the original owner of this beautiful doll and she has been cared for carefully the past 19 years. I am thinning out my awesome collection due to space issues and will be listing more beautiful Barbies. Shipping is free within the USA

Thank you so much for viewing this auction and happy bidding!
