I bought this in an antique store, and the owner told me he had sold another one like this except the woman was dressed in green. The arm broke off of this, she used to have a pitchfork in the broken hand. What I want to know is if anyone knows where I can see other antiques like this one. This also serves as a vase. Can anyone tell me anything about it and where I can find similar items
Hi jenna, You say that it also serves as a vase--I'm guessing it is what is known as a wall pocket. Probably 1950's. I love it, very cool!
Thankyou so much...I'm going to check that out.
No problem jenna, I googled woman devil wall pocket and one came up on pinterest. It claimed to be midcentury and made in Japan w/a question mark. I also believe it to be made in japan based on the looks. I have a cute little vintage boy dressed as a little devil and it is marked japan and similar in style to your piece.
looks like these figures were made with different poses; here's one on WP:
