Country Goose Figurines Appraisal

Vintage Country Goose Figurines with Teal Bows

This is a pair of decorative ceramic figurines depicting anthropomorphic white geese or ducks, quintessential examples of the 'country kitchen' or 'shabby chic' aesthetic popular during the 1980s and early 1990s. Each figurine is constructed from molded ceramic with a textured, rippled surface designed to mimic feathering. The geese are finished in a matte white glaze with orange-yellow hand-painted accents on the bills and webbed feet. A primary distinguishing feature is the large, sculpted teal-blue ribbon tied in a bow around each neck. One goose is positioned looking forward while the other has a slightly tilted head, creating a complementary display. One figurine features a secondary accessory: a miniature blue picket fence plaque hanging from its neck with a small white duck icon, likely a later addition or a specific brand variant. The condition appears fair to good for the age, showing typical surface dust and minor shelf wear on the bases. There are no major visible chips or cracks in the primary photograph, though the matte finish is susceptible to scuffing. These are likely mass-produced decorative hobbyist pieces or giftware from companies such as Homeco or various ceramic mold distributors from the late 20th century.
