Hummel figurines are hand-crafted and show what children of the 1930s looked like. Their innocent and adorable appearance is probably one of the reasons why the figurines became so popular and were ideal as gifts. Each figurine shows a child or group of children doing what children do — having a nap, singing, playing with animals, reading a book, or celebrating holidays — and you can find them dressed up in professional wear, like a postman, scientist, or doctor. There are even Christmas holiday sets of figurines. The manufacturing of Hummel figurines has declined, so you will find them priced differently based on both the style and when the figurine was produced.
