Description

Standing roughly 7 inches tall, this cheerful fisherman figurine sports a golden straw hat and carries a wicker basket with a painted fish -- a classic example of post-occupation Japanese export porcelain at its most delightful. Marked 'Made in Japan' on the base with an original price tag still intact, this peasant boy is full of rustic character and bright hand-applied color.

This tall Dutch-style woman figurine, approximately 7 inches, stands with hands on hips and all the confidence of someone who just finished churning butter. Dressed in a black bodice, yellow blouse, and flowing pink skirt, she carries a blue watering can and wears a pale pink cap. 'Made in Japan' mark visible on base.

A dapper little gentleman in a blue coat and black breeches, this small-scale figurine stands roughly 3 inches tall and carries himself with surprising 18th-century swagger. Hand-painted in vivid blues and reds, he is marked 'Made in Occupied Japan' on his oval base -- a detail that places him squarely in the post-WWII 1945-1952 production window and makes him a genuine collectible.

This petite 3-inch girl figurine wears a green bonnet and carries what appears to be a basket of fruit or vegetables, rendered in charming hand-painted detail. Marked 'Made in Occupied Japan,' she is the perfect companion piece to the blue-coated gentleman and a sought-after find for Occupied Japan collectors.

A larger gentleman figurine standing approximately 7 inches tall, dressed in a blue vest, white shirt, and rich red breeches, posed beside a stone fence post. His green feathered hat is sculpted with fine detail, and his expression carries a quiet dignity. 'Made in Japan' mark on base with original sticker.

This seated or standing female figurine in a deep burgundy jacket and yellow straw hat is bursting with color, clutching a basket of goods near what appears to be a wooden barrel or fence. Standing approximately 7 inches, she is marked 'Made in Japan' on her rectangular base with an original price sticker still attached.

A delightful double figurine grouping showing a young couple in 18th-century-inspired dress -- he in blue and green, she in yellow and white -- leaning together over what may be a small animal or bundle. Approximately 3 inches tall and marked 'Made in Japan,' this sweet pastoral pairing is ideal for a cottage-style display.

The lone non-figurine of the lot, this hand-painted ceramic vase features a tropical scene complete with a palm tree, sailboat, and colorful cottage rendered in vivid enamels. Standing approximately 5 inches tall with twin gold-luster handles and a warm tan glaze on the neck, it is marked 'Made in Japan' on its clean white base. A lovely accent piece that rounds out this charming Japanese export collection.
