Rare! Unusual! Punch & Judy Terra Cotta Character Pins Judy Crocodile Policeman

Description

I wish I could tell you anything about these delightful pieces, but I haven't found any reference to anything like these pins. They're made of what appears to be a kind of terra cotta clay, definitely fired, but the color applied looks more like paint than glazing of any kind. They appear to be made by pressing the wet clay into a mold, possibly. Very interesting and wonderfully detailed and full of character. I especially like the crocodile!  I hope you find these as charming as I do!  The photos tell you as much as I know.
