They are irresistibly charming in their delicate sweetness. They are miniature and so are all the exquisite details and tiny little treasures they cary - from the tiny apple to the candles on the tree.  Original sticker intact on base, it dates the piece from 1949-1956:   "i n 1955/56, a green dot was added to the base of the figurines next to the logo. This marked a change in the material used for the angel wings, from wood to plastic. Up to this time, the wafer-thin wooden wings often snapped off when they were being attached to the body, packaged or transported. The solution lay in this new material." Condition: Good vintage condition for 55-77 year old piece — light wear consistent with age, paint chipping, and one of her wings is missing, priced accordingly. Please look carefully at the pictures and ask any questions.
