Rare Meissen hand-molded set of 6 porcelain figures – Grimm's Fairy Tales by Peter Strang.

We are privileged to present a rare and exceptional collection of six hand-formed porcelain figurines created by the legendary Meissen master, Peter Strang. This curated ensemble unites five masterpieces inspired by the timeless tales of the Brothers Grimm, alongside one rare piece from Wilhelm Hauff. Each figure is a testament to Strang's revolutionary "Hand-molded" (Hand-knäuelt) technique, wherein no two pieces are ever identical, capturing the whimsical, expressive spirit that defines his world-class legacy.
