Porcelain Native
Christmas Figurines
Brief History of Figurines:
Figurines or sculptures were created by humans since the dawn of time. Ancient civilizations made figurines and statues of everything they could from their kings to common people and animals to a representation of their deity. These were made from materials readily available for the craft, such as stone, wood or clay. As time passed and other materials were invented they were also used things like porcelain, glass, metal and resin. Many of these ancient statues on display in museums around the world. Today figurines are usually made of porcelain, glass, acrylic or resin. These are found in homes, businesses, churches and government buildings. They are used as decoration, for religious observance, inspiration or help us remember special events or people.
Collectible Santa Figurines:
Many children around the world believe in Santa Claus. Both adults and kids love Santa figurines as they seem to help the spirit of Christmas bring everyone home. Musical Santa figurines are a perfect way to do this because they combine the look of Christmas with music of the season. There are fun figurines like the Cowboy Santa Bobble Head for those a western type theme for their Christmas enjoyment. For Santa figurines for the living room there is the popular Santa's Letters Clothtique Possible Dreams and for the children there is Santa with Electric Candle or the Sitting Santa Snow Globe. And then there are Great Outdoor illuminated Santa Claus to light to help the front yard.
Guardian Angel Figurines:
In 2004, 78 percent of Americans say they believe in the existence of angels, according to a Gallup poll. Many people of different religions believe that angels are beings sent from God to man to help and in some cases to a guardian for them for a time. There are many angel figurines such as Guardian Angel with Sheep, for children of the Sweet Angel Figurine Bell, as part of a nativity arrangement 5 Inch Standing Angel birth and simple view of the Table Top Angel Holding a clarinet.
Other Christmas Figurines:
Now in the Christmas season are not just Santa and Angels there many other characters that may appear to brighten up the house and bring that Christmas spirit to help, some may even be omitted more than just at Christmas. There is a beautiful Reindeer Pulling Victorian Sleigh, or for the classic Coca Cola Christmas Santa is Santa Claus Ornaments, or even the slightly larger sets 23 inches Michaelson The Nativity Shepherd Chapel. When decorating your home there are many images or small images which can be used to bring the season.
Snowman Christmas Figurine:
Another popular Christmas figurine is that of a snowman. Back in medieval times people use to make snowmen when new snow fell, a practice still done today. In the northern hemisphere snowfall is often an indication of the upcoming holidays. There are a variety of snowmen figurines like the Acrylic Lighted Snowman Figurine, or whimsical Snowman Porcelain Figurine. For children there is the Snowman Holding Electric Candle which can also double as a nightlight. And for those families with yards there is a large outdoor Illuminated Snowman Family.

I have a question about porcelain dolls and no one is answering this, what category should I put it in?
Here it is: I can not find the values some Native American dolls. What can I do? I've searched on the internet and looking for porcelain dolls. Like some Paradise Gallery, Masterpiece Gallery, Tender Tears, Indian and Donna Rubert Dolls. None of them have their statements, but I know some of their names. How can I find their values?
I did a little searching after Reading your question a number of people asked in hobbies and crafts toys others asked some people gave in a few places to look at the value of collectibles to look the price guides at bookstores around Schroeder's is a great price.
