My Collection of Musical Figurines


Occupied In Japan Musical Figurines

Here are some pictures of my favorite collection that my mother gave me so many years ago.  She has so many beautiful antiques, I was thrilled when she gave this collection to me. The little figurines are antique porcelain figurines, made in Occupied Japan. They are just stunning figurines with beautiful little painted details and such bright colors.  They are all trimmed and accented with touches of gold and I dearly love each one of them. 

Each time I look at them, I end up changing my mind on which on is my favorite.
They are all such grand little figurines!

I am so happy to share this special collection with you!

    Thank you so much for the kind comment regarding my Magpie poem this evening. I wrote that almost three years ago during the last days of my mother's life. as my mother was growing closer to death. I had 'camped out' on the floor of her room in Memory Care .. nights were the hardest to bear.
