Goebel W. Germany Porcelain Figurine Girl at Fence with Bird, Polka Dot

The Hummel figurines were first created in 1935 based on drawings by Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel, a Franciscan nun and artist. The 'Signs of Spring' design depicts a young girl at a fence with a bluebird, symbolizing the arrival of spring and childhood innocence. These figurines became highly collectible worldwide and represent mid-20th century German craftsmanship and sentimental art. Hummel collectors value these pieces for their nostalgic appeal, hand-painted details, and connection to post-war German culture. Vintage Hummels from earlier trademark periods are particularly sought after by dedicated collectors.
