Pair of Vintage Goebel Hummel 'Apple Tree Girl' and 'Apple Tree Boy' Porcelain Figurine Lamps

This is a matching pair of vintage porcelain table lamps featuring the iconic M.I. Hummel figurines 'Apple Tree Girl' (Hum 229) and 'Apple Tree Boy' (Hum 230), produced by Goebel in Germany. The girl lamp depicts a young girl in a red kerchief sitting on a branch, while the boy lamp shows a young boy in a blue jacket perched in a tree; both scenes include a small dog barking from the ground near a rustic wooden fence. The figures are hand-painted in characteristic muted earth tones and pastels with a matte finish. Physically, each lamp stands on a thick, circular cream-colored porcelain base that integrates into a faux-wood tree trunk column. The electrical components consist of a brass-tone socket at the top and white cord sets visible in the background. Construction quality is high, indicative of mid-20th-century German porcelain manufacturing. Notable features include the detailed textures of the tree bark and the expressive, cherubic faces of the children. Visible condition issues include minor surface dust and potential light crazing consistent with age, though the porcelain appears free of major chips or cracks. The brass sockets show a natural aged patina and some surface wear. These pieces likely date from the 1960s to 1970s based on the style of the lamp hardware and the modeling of the figures. Small white screw caps are present on the bases, possibly securing the internal electrical mounting.
