c. 1980s; Martha Holcombe – Gadsden, AL Set of three hand-painted figurines designed and signed by Martha Holcombe, titled "Prissy, " "Bonnie, " and "Sasha." Each portrays a distinct moment of character and charm: Prissy clutching her doll in a simple apron and bonnet, Bonnie seated gracefully in a green dress with wide-brimmed hat and red heels, and Sasha perched on a wooden stump holding an apple and a small book. Rendered in Holcombe’s warm, expressive sculptural style, these pieces showcase the artist’s ability to convey innocence, narrative, and cultural heritage through richly layered hand-painted finishes. Martha Holcombe emerged in the 1980s as a notable American sculptor producing limited-run figurines that celebrated family, faith, and everyday moments of joy, later leading to her popular Little Miss Martha Originals and Holcombe’s Heritage collections.
Minor surface wear and light rubbing to painted surfaces; no chips, cracks, or repairs observed.
