    These are just sweet to me.
    I love the little boy playing and girl dancing.
    Made of painted bronze on marble base.

      Very much like the porcelain figures of Hummel in Germany. JB actually made these in spelter but they called them French Bronze. I do not know if they are like all the other figurines which Hirsch dug up the original moulds under the bronze factories just right after the war, and for 20 years the hunt to dig up the originals went on.

      Lovely. I thought they were Black Forest carvings at first, nice they're painted bronze!
