Add a touch of 1930s whimsy to your bar collection with this rare, hand-painted porcelain bottle stopper set. Featuring a cheerful couple—a gentleman in a classic maroon bowler and a lady in a stylish blue cloche—this set is a quintessential example of Art Deco novelty barware.
These "character" stoppers were highly popular exports from Germany during the early 20th century. This specific set is unique because it includes the original porcelain "picket fence" stand, which perfectly frames the duo for Circa 1920s–1930s (Art Deco)
Material: High-quality glazed porcelain
Design: Hand-painted features with expressive, theatrical faces
Origin: Unmarked; consistent with German porcelain production of the era (Hertwig/Shafer & Vater style)
Condition Report:
Porcelain: Excellent vintage condition. No chips, cracks, or repairs to the figures or the fence stand. The paint remains vibrant with minimal age-related wear.
Corks: The porcelain heads are firmly attached to their original corks. Please note: One cork is partially broken off due to age (as shown in photos). It can be easily replaced or used as-is for display.
