  • Girl bathing in a walnut ornament.......??

    Yes, the title sounds very odd lol

    I have this tiny little ornament of a girl bathing in a walnut, I love it to pieces! but the problem is, I have no idea where it's from, who made it, when it was made or if it's part of a set....if so, I'd love to see the others!

    I have a feeling my grandmother gave it to me but I feel like I've always had it, I don't remember not ever having it in my bedroom as a child...so must have been young when she gave it to me....(I was born in 1983, if that helps any) I've asked my parents and they haven't got a clue.....lol
    I'll add a picture but I'm afraid it isn't very good, I keep her at my parents house now, as our cat has a tendency to find things and knock them flying and I'd be sooo upset if she got broke I went to visit them today and the only thing I had one me to take a picture was my mobile phone...
    So....any ideas people??? anybody else have one? or something like it, like part of the set??

            Found her on Ebay though the seller doesn't quite know what she is either

                I still think she may be Thumbelina. I'll keep searching I'll let you know if I get anywhere

                    The same seller now has this listed, looks like it may have been part of a story/mythical collection?

                        I messaged the seller but she doesn't know anything about them either, they were given to her as gifts, she does seem to think they are from the same set though and she says she thinks they're from the 80's which falls in line, as I was born in 1983
