Vintage Pair of Dept. 56 White Bunnies. They measure 4" in height by 4 1/2" length. Excellent condition. Comes with box. Box is in used condition.
This endearing pair of white porcelain bunnies belongs to the classic Dept. 56 Snowbunnies collection, celebrated for capturing quiet moments of whimsy in a signature matte bisque finish. Each bunny is individually posed to create a narrative of companionship, with one rabbit appearing to "share a secret" with its attentive partner. The craftsmanship emphasizes texture over color, highlighting the realistic "knit" pattern of their winter caps and the soft, rounded contours of their forms. This monochromatic approach gives the set a timeless, sculptural quality that transcends typical holiday decor.
While these are often sought after for springtime or Easter displays, their stark white palette and subtle textures allow them to blend seamlessly into a Dark Academia aesthetic. They serve as excellent curios to nestle among antique books or under a glass cloche on a dark wood desk, offering a touch of innocence to a moody, intellectual space. The figurines are in excellent condition, free of chips or discoloration. They come accompanied by their original Department 56 box; though the packaging shows visible signs of wear and shelf life, it remains a functional way to store and protect these delicate porcelain creatures for years to come.
This set is vintage, approximately 25 years old.
