Ceramic Christmas angel figurine with letter 'L' from the 'Noel' series by Commodore Japan
History
This ceramic angel figurine was produced in Japan by Commodore in the 1950s as part of their 'Heavenly Noel' Christmas collection. Each angel in the set holds a different letter to spell out 'NOEL' when displayed together, with this particular piece holding the letter 'L'. These Christmas decorative figurines were popular during the post-World War II era when Japanese ceramics were widely exported to the American market. Collectors of mid-century Christmas decorations and vintage holiday memorabilia particularly value these Commodore angel figurines for their charming aesthetic and nostalgic appeal. Complete sets are especially sought after by Christmas decoration enthusiasts and vintage ceramic collectors.
