Description

Papier-m?ch? Made in Germany

Around the 20s and 30s of the last century models of “humanized” Easter hares became popular. Also the chocolate manufacturer designed a variety of those models. One of them was the model for our “rabbit.” Glass eyes make it look lively.

About Marolin Manufaktur

Founded in 1900, Richard Mahr of Steinach, Germany created the finely detailed papier-mâché figurines that have since become internationally known and collected. Marolin figurines are hand composed using a combination of kaolin, chalk, paper fibers, organic paste, and clay before being hand poured and painted. These figurines, not unlike Vaillancourt’s Chalkware, are known for their artistic quality and detail.
