The two dolls are styled after the clothing of European colonial gentlemen from the 18th and 19th centuries (Victorian or Rococo style). The material and finish are porcelain with hand-painted coloring, and the surface is finished with a glossy glaze. These dolls are "Occupied Japan" (MADE IN OCCUPIED JAPAN) products manufactured in Japan during the post-World War II occupation. They were manufactured from Showa 22 (1947) to Showa 27 (1952) during the Allied occupation, and the manufacturer's stamp was required on the bottom of the dolls by the GHQ. They were mainly exported to the United States and Canada and are very old products. They are highly collectible vintage items. Although they are less expensive than branded goods, their value is high due to their simple charm and historical background. Size: Approximately 9 cm The "Occupied Japan" stamp is on the back. I purchased them at an antique exhibition at the Seibu Department Store. There is slight fading due to aging. There are no noticeable scratches or stains. If you have any questions, please comment before purchasing.
