Rare Matched Pair of Antique Bisque Heubach Figurals - Girl & Boy Enjoying Sweets

Step back into an era of innocent delight with this exceptionally rare and captivating matched pair of antique bisque figurals by the esteemed Gebrüder Heubach company, who made the most magical bisque dolls, and all bisque figures, in Lichten, Germany, from 1840 to 1925. The sweet-faced girl, with her delicate features and charming attire, gazes lovingly at her treat, while her playful boy companion, equally engrossed, embodies pure childhood bliss. Their expressions, masterfully rendered in fine bisque, capture a fleeting moment of pure contentment, making them incredibly endearing and relatable even today.

Beyond their undeniable charm, the true rarity lies in finding such a perfectly preserved matched pair. Each figural boasts exquisite hand-painted details – from the rosy blush on their cheeks to the intricate folds of their garments – showcasing Heubach's renowned craftsmanship and attention to detail. The soft, matte finish of the bisque further enhances their delicate beauty and vintage appeal.

These aren't just decorative pieces; they are miniature works of art that evoke a sense of nostalgia and warmth. Whether you're a seasoned collector of Heubach, a lover of antique dolls, or simply searching for a unique and heartwarming addition to your home, this enchanting pair promises to be a cherished focal point. The boy has a restored hand - no doubt after some little person, enamored by the two, reached out and dropped him. The restoration is on his hand, and there is a break in his cap with sweets. Please look at the close up photos, and only adopt these two darlings if you can live with that. Matched pairs of this quality are so rarely found that I forgave him his restoration. These are the cabinet large size. Priced accordingly.

Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of history – a tangible reminder of the timeless joy of childhood. Works by Gebrüder Heubach are held in prestigious institutions worldwide, including: The Victoria and Albert Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art 
The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Dresden Porcelain Museum.
