These porcelain figurines was produced in Germany by Nymphenburg in 1945. The rooster (largest) measures 6.50 inches tall and 4 inches widest and the Hen (Smaller matching one) 4 inches tall and 3 inches at the widest width. It has two marks, one green shield in over-glaze and one impressed shield. The model number 619 AND 620 in the second are impressed in the base.
This is an impressive piece of work. The detail in the porcelain shows fine artistry. It is beautifully hand painted. It truly portrays this proud bird in all his splendor. These are a rare find as a pair and NO others, can be found on the net in excellent condition. Both are signed on the base with the Nymphenburg trademark in green, WESTERN GERMANY
