Post War Ceramic "Aloha" Hawaiian Dancing Hula Girl w/ Lei & Grass Skirt
About the Item
Original post-war ceramic chalkware dancing Hawaiian Hula girl figurine made from lightweight plaster and painted in vibrant tropical colors and a fabric hula skirt. It depicts a young Hawaiian hula dancer in traditional attire, posed in a hula dance with Lei & Grass Skirt. Standing at 8inches tall this hula girl is connected in the middle with a center spring causing her to hula dance (similar to a bobblehead) when moved or touched on the head.
The hula girl stands with her arms raised and hands gently placed on her head, capturing a graceful moment from a hula dance. Her facial features are delicately painted, reflecting a serene or playful expression, embodying the spirit of aloha. She wears a traditional lei around her neck, crafted from chalk ware and painted in bright colors to evoke the tropical flowers of Hawaii. Her outfit includes a grass skirt, hand-painted in shades of green or brown, simulating the natural materials used in traditional hula attire.
The figure says "Aloha" along the front.
