Discover the ethereal charm of mid-century design with this Vintage Japanese Ceramic Cherub Angel. Expertly crafted during the golden era of Japanese porcelain imports, this piece features a sweet-faced angel gracefully seated with a golden-hued harp. The figurine is finished in a soft, matte "bisque" style with hand-painted details, including delicate rosy cheeks and expressive, large eyes that are hallmark traits of the 1960s "Kitsch" aesthetic.
The base is clearly marked with its authentic "Made in Japan" stamp and mold number 3096 (or 8096), identifying it as part of a classic musical angel series often distributed by well-known importers like ARDCO. Whether you are completing a musical cherub choir or looking for a timeless gift for a musician, this figurine is a beautiful piece of history.
