A trio of mid-century Japanese felt pixies, each with a hand-painted celluloid face and a pointed hat.
Materials: Felt, celluloid, decorative trim
Dimensions: Approx. 5" long, not including hat
Origin: Japan
Era: Vintage, 1950s
Condition: Very good vintage condition — the red pixie is missing its pom-pom (priced accordingly); the white pixie could use light cleaning. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
These mid-century felt pixies share a family resemblance with the classic Knee Hugger elves, though their legs stand stiff rather than bending.
A charming addition to a Christmas tree, wreath, or garland — or gift the trio together to start someone's own collection. Sold individually; choose your color above.
Pixie and elf figures were among the most common mid-century Japanese Christmas exports, produced in huge variety across colors and small design details. Complete color runs like this red, white, and teal trio are increasingly hard to find together today.
