Wee Forest Folk Miniatures M-179 - Sea Sounds (Blue)
Wee Forest FolkThis tiny mouse figurine is at the beach in his blue bathing trunks with a silver shovel and red pail. He's found a lovely conch shell on the beach, and he and his mouse friends are pretending the sea shells are walkie-talkies. Much more fun than a set of tin cans and a string don't you think? The details on this little piece will make you smile; from the surprised expression on his adorable face, to his teeny, tiny belly button and leather tail! This vintage miniature figurine is in excellent condition. It comes in a Wee Forest Folk box for gifting and storage. Sculpted and initialed by Annette Petersen. Approximate dimensions: 1.375" (h) x 1" (w).
Every Wee Forest Folk figurine is hand-painted and made in the USA.

The Petersen Family have been crafting Wee Forest Folk exquisite miniatures since 1972 right here in the USA. A Wee Forest Folk figurine begins as an original clay piece which is hand sculpted by one of three sculptors in the Petersen family. The finished sculpture is molded and hand cast at the "mouse factory" in Carlisle, MA. Carefully selected artists flawlessly paint each one by hand bringing to life a sweet little mouse personality.
