Vintage 1970s Byron Mold Ceramic Girl White Cat Grandfather Clock Signed 11” ITEM DESCRIPTIONCharming vintage 1970s ceramic girl and grandfather clock figurine, created from a Byron ceramic mold and individually hand-painted and signed by the artist.This nostalgic collectible reflects the popular ceramic hobby and craft movement of the 1970s, when individuals attended local ceramic studios and classes to create, paint, glaze, and personalize decorative pieces using commercially produced ceramic molds.The figurine features an adorable little girl wearing a soft yellow dress with a pale green apron and an oversized matching bonnet accented by a large bow. She stands beside a traditional grandfather clock with a wood-look brown finish, decorative architectural details, Roman numeral clock face, and ornate gold-tone hands.A sweet little white cat sits beside the girl at the base of the clock, adding to the whimsical storybook charm.The entire scene rests on a reddish-orange oval base and features soft pastel colors and carefully painted details.Unlike mass-produced decorative figurines, pieces created in ceramic classes often feature individual artistic touches, making each finished example unique.A delightful piece of 1970s ceramic hobby history, perfect for collectors of vintage ceramics, handmade figurines, nostalgic childhood décor, and decorative clocks.ITEM DETAILS* Mold Manufacturer: Byron Molds
