About the Item

This charming piece has been in my collection for over 40 years. The articulated arms and glass eyes contribute to its charm and personality. I have always felt it signified a sense of peace, love and empathy. Although it is in somewhat of a distressed condition, for me it only contributes to its antiquity and attractiveness. I hope these same qualities are felt and appreciated by its next owner.
