Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs miniature figurine set
Estimated Value
$20-$75 for the group as shown; higher if confirmed as an early marked set or from a known maker
A small hand-painted miniature set depicting Snow White with the Seven Dwarfs. The central figure is Snow White in a blue bodice and yellow skirt, surrounded by seven dwarf figures in varied colored caps and outfits. The style is simplified and whimsical, with glossy painted surfaces and small-scale detailing. One figure on the bottom right shows a maker's mark on the underside reading 'Walt Disney Prod' with a copyright symbol, indicating Disney licensing. The figures appear to be decorative collectibles rather than high-end porcelain sculptures.
