He's gathered so many flowers they've overflowed his hat, while she waters with the purposeful air of someone who knows exactly what she's doing — a substantial Hummel-inspired pair from Arnart's 5th Avenue line.

  • Maker: Arnart 5th Avenue Imports
  • Materials: Ceramic, hand-painted
  • Dimensions: Both 9.5" tall
  • Origin: Japan
  • Era: Vintage, 1957–1960s

The blue backstamp reads "Arnart/5th Avenue, Hand Painted, 11/553" — a mark used from 1957 onward, when Arnart moved to their Fifth Avenue offices and refined their branding. These two are a hard find together and in this condition.

A wonderful pair for a garden lover, a spring or summer display, or anyone who collects Arnart or Hummel-style figurines — a beautiful gift for a birthday, Mother's Day, or housewarming.

Arnart Imports Inc. has been operating from 230 Fifth Avenue in New York since 1953, importing porcelain gifts that became beloved fixtures in American homes.
