Description

A girl sits reading a book with a sleeping pup at her feet, the kind of quiet afternoon every nostalgic collector dreams of owning. Sculpted by Dee Crowley for Austin Productions under the Bright Eyes collection, this figurine bears the maker's mark on its oval base along with a Kirkland's retail sticker originally priced at 30.00. The matte bisque finish gives it that warm, earthy studio-art feel that pairs beautifully with farmhouse or cottage decor.

This mid-sized Bright Eyes figurine by Dee Crowley for Austin Productions features a child leaning over a wide bowl or basket with an eager little dog looking on, full of curiosity and life. The base is impressed with the Bright Eyes copyright mark and the sculptor's name, confirming its authenticity as part of this beloved series. The sandy bisque tone and hand-textured surface give it the look of a fine studio piece rather than a mass-market trinket.

The showstopper of the trio, this larger Dee Crowley Bright Eyes figurine depicts a child seated cross-legged, chin resting on hand, gazing thoughtfully at an adoring pup mid-kiss. Marked on the base with Dee Crowley, Bright Eyes copyright, and Austin Productions 1987, this is a dated and fully attributed piece with serious collector credibility. The hollow base and felt-padded bottom are consistent with Austin Productions' quality production standards of the era.
