[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 365317, member: 2844"]Welcome to the forum, Jaime. I feel like I am barging in on a conversation between a cute kitty and a cute puppy;), but yes, it looks like majolica to me. And they are charming, something I would buy, as a collector of regional costumes. [USER=90]@Walter Del Pellegrino[/USER] , who has forgotten more about Italian ceramics than most of us will ever hope to know, has written before about ceramics that are just marked Italy. It is something I keep forgetting, but I've tagged him, so he will enlighten us when he has the time. On the dress of the figurines: The man is dressed in a costume from the Hungarian Plain, the woman's costume is pretty generic European, but could be from Hungary as well. They could be from an Italian series of European folk costumes.[/QUOTE]
