Description
Discover this charming pair of vintage anthropomorphic ladybug ceramic figurines, made in Japan circa 1950s. These delightful mid-century pieces feature whimsical hand-painted details and playful poses, capturing the essence of post-war Japanese kitsch collectibles.
The male figurine is in a reclining pose, while the female figurine sits with red shoes, both adorned with rosy cheeks and googly eyes. Perfect for collectors of vintage Japanese ceramics or anyone who loves quirky mid-century decor, these figurines make an adorable display piece for shelves, curio cabinets, or vintage kitchen vignettes.
Each figurine measures approximately 2.5 inches tall and 2 inches wide. They are in good vintage condition for their age, with some paint wear on the female figurine’s body and feet. The male figurine retains better paint, and there are no chips or cracks observed. The glossy ceramic glaze shows some crazing consistent with age, and the original “Made in Japan” markings are intact on the base. These figurines are a wonderful addition to any collection of anthropomorphic collectibles or retro decor.
