MI Hummel Apple Tree Girl 141/1 & Apple Tree Boy 141/1 – 6" West Germany 1960–1972

Two vintage M.I. Hummel figurines that tell a simple, timeless story: a girl and a boy sit beneath an apple tree. Each stands about 6 inches tall, forming a complementary pair that brings nostalgic charm to any display. These Apple Tree figures are from West Germany, produced between 1960 and 1972, and they originate from an original 1940 sculpture.

The set carries the V and Bee Mark, a hallmark of early Hummel pieces, and they’re in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, crazing, or repairs. This combination of provenance, craftsmanship, and pristine condition makes them a standout addition to a vintage Hummel collection or a thoughtful gift for collectors who value authentic 20th-century German ceramic figurines.
