A set of eight ceramic figurines inspired by the Disney Studios enduring animated classic "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937). Featuring the eight titular characters, the gorgeous set was designed by Martha Armstrong and produced by Hagen Renaker during the short period that they were licensed to produce Disney ceramics in the late 1950's. Despite the small stature of the figures, Hagen Renaker is revered for their ability to capture elegant details in miniature figures. The short time of production, and delicate nature of the miniatures has made these figures a treasure to find, and according to Walt Disney, they produced "the finest three-dimensional reproductions of (the animated) drawings that he ever saw. Snow White measures 0.75" wide x 2.25" tall, and the dwarfs measure 1.25" at the tallest and 1.25" at the widest. The set is in good condition overall with some crazing throughout, and visible wear on the Doc figurine.
