Goebel W. Germany’ Please see photos.

These limited edition Goebel figurines in the Blumenkinder (German for Flower Children) Series inspired by the artwork of Lore Hummel and modeled by the Goebel Master Sculptor, Gerhard Bochmann. The Blumenkinder series is known for the presence of flowers, usually on the base and often in the form of a bouquet or other decorative feature. What makes this series unique is that each of the petals and leaves are created individually and applied to the figurine by hand. This feature makes the figurines more lifelike, but also adds to the delicacy of the final piece. Production of this product line started in 1966 and ended in 1982. All Blumenkinder figurines were made in limited editions of 2000 pieces.
