The Danel & Cie Company was founded by Messieurs Anatole Danel and Guepratte located in Paris and Montreuilsous Bois, France.  Danel was a past director of the Jumeau doll company,   and the companies had factories across the street from one another.  In 1890 Jumeau successfully sued Danel & Cie for copyright infringement.  By 1895 Danel & Cie went out of business and Jumeau, probably as part of the settlement, renewed their Paris Bebe and Bebe Francais trademarks and continued with their own production of the doll.

They are best know for their bisque socket head dolls, with paperweight eyes, feathered brows, pierced ears with wood and composition jointed bodies: Paris Bébé, Bébé Français and a black Bébé Français, all of which are high quality.

Danel & Cie used the Eiffel Tower trademark, Tété Déposé/Paris Bébé, or B # F as their marking.  (The French term Bébé, Bebe = dolly or baby faced doll).
