Ceramic figurines of animals such as raccoons and lorises. These were sold in the 1970s by Maruri, a world-renowned ceramic manufacturer in Seto City, Aichi Prefecture, for the American market. I have kept them with care, but I am selling them to organize my collection. They were not sold in Japan, and this is a sample product for a sales company in the United States, making it extremely rare. Their beautiful, lifelike eyes and playful poses are adorable. Their expressions are very lovely, and they will bring a sense of peace just by placing them on a desk or shelf. • Pioneer of overseas exports: They manufactured many ceramic dolls for export (Seto Novelty) from the 1950s, and have fans all over the world, especially for their elaborate animal and human figurines. • Uses: Recommended for entryway displays, living room interiors, and as gifts. ◯ Size (cm) Height 10, Width 10, Depth 7 I am also selling other items #Kevin'sRoom Antique vintage brocante Orne de feuilles retro Maneki Neko vintage antique lucky cat Maneki Neko Japan kutani imari Kutaniyaki figurines Feng Shui art and crafts old art antiques tea ceremony utensils old tools art gallery modern art contemporary art African art primitive art art museum art mid-century Japan Folk Crafts Museum handmade folk crafts Asian goods Scandinavian goods American toys American goods Showa retro Marimekko Alessi Iittala bird Aalto Lucie Rie Lisa Larson Bernard Leach Kanjiro Kawai Bauhaus Sun Koro Ku Yanagi Sori Yanagi Takashi Murakami Arita ware Kutani ware Koimari Imari Yachimun arts&science Holmstock Kensington Cat Noritake Royal Doulton J&G Meakin mid winter Royal Worcester Rorstrand Meissen Royal Crown Derby Wedgwood Royal Copenhagen Lladro Murano Kosta Boda Scheurich Villeroy & Boch Conran Shop arts and science Balz Francfranc IDEE
