Description
A complete set of seven miniature character figurines depicting the Seven Dwarfs from Disney’s Snow White: Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey. The figures are constructed from ceramic or porcelain and finished with a hand-painted semi-gloss glaze. Each character is depicted in a unique pose: Doc wears a red shirt with eyeglasses, Dopey is in a green tunic, and Grumpy stands with his arms crossed. The bases are unglazed white ceramic. Several bases feature small, indistinct circular impressions, but no legible maker’s names, numbers, or country-of-origin marks are present.
Height: 1 inch to 1 1/4 inches
Total width (as shown): 6 inches.
