Description
A charming pair of Hummel Goebel ceramic bookends, depicting a boy with rabbits and a girl with chicks. Each bookend features a hand-painted ceramic figure attached to a wooden bookend base designed to resemble a wooden gate. The boy figure, dressed in a green hat and brown attire, is seated with a basket containing several white rabbits. The girl figure, wearing a reddish-brown bonnet and dress, is seated with a basket full of yellow chicks, with one chick at her feet. Both ceramic figures are signed "M. J. Hummel" on the wooden base and have the Goebel "V" bee mark. These pieces are characteristic of the mid-20th century German style, known for their whimsical and endearing portrayal of children. The detailing on the ceramic figures is delicate and vibrant, capturing the innocent charm associated with Hummel figurines. The wooden bases show a warm, natural wood grain. These bookends are perfect for a nursery, child's room, or a collector of Hummel figurines. The style is classic Hummel, evoking a sense of nostalgia and childhood wonder.
