Up for sale is a beautiful, highly detailed set of 2 vintage Norleans bisque porcelain figurines featuring a heartwarming Old Farm Couple (Grandpa & Grandma). This hand-painted set captures a classic country aesthetic with incredible character work.
The dapper elderly gentleman is depicted holding his smoking pipe and pocket knife with a loyal duck resting at his feet. His companion wears a traditional head bonnet and shawl, holding a freshly harvested basket of fruit or vegetables with her small puppy alongside her.
Both figurines feature a soft, matte bisque finish with a muted country color palette.
