1940s German Matchstick-Leg Sheep, Set of 2

A sweet pair of 1940s German wool sheep, handcrafted with simple charm and enduring appeal. Each figure stands on matchstick legs and is wrapped in soft wool, giving them a wonderfully lifelike texture. Their pink paper collars and painted features reflect the distinctive folk craftsmanship of midcentury Erzgebirge toy-making traditions.

Unsigned and unmarked, these figures were once part of holiday nativity scenes or miniature farm displays—each one telling its own quiet story of rural European artistry. Perfect for collectors of early toys, folk art, or vintage Christmas décor.
