A charming pair of small figures depicting a sailor and girl standing next to roped bollards.
The sailor figure was produced in four sizes, but the companion figure was made only in the smaller two sizes.
These little figures are naïve but are offered in good condition, presenting well. There is an old, shallow chip to the back of the female figure and some light discolouration and flaking.
