History
This decorative figurine was produced in the 1980s by Fraser Art under the Bonssons brand name, part of a limited numbered series (2190/5000). These hand-painted resin or chalkware pieces were mass-produced as affordable home décor items during the height of woodland animal collectibles popularity in North America. The sculpture depicts a charming scene of raccoons foraging, capturing the naturalistic aesthetic that was highly fashionable in middle-class American homes during that era. Woodland animal figurines like this raccoon family piece appeal to collectors of 1980s vintage décor, nature enthusiasts, and those with nostalgia for mid-century to late 20th-century Americana. These pieces are valued for their detailed hand-painted craftsmanship, their representation of a specific era in decorative arts, and their warm, homey aesthetic that evokes a connection to nature and simpler times.
