PRECIOUS
MOMENTS FIGURINE LET’S PUT THE PIECES TOGETHER 525928 WITH BOX & TAGS. This auction is for a Precious Moments
porcelain bisque figurine by Enesco. It
is Item #525928 entitled ‘Let’s Put the Pieces Together.’ Produced in 1997 and made in Thailand. What an adorable pair – a small blonde haired
boy and girl are each kneeling in front of a small green table putting the
pieces of a heart shaped puzzle in front of them. The boy has a sling shot in his pocket,
puzzle pieces are on the ground and each has a piece in their hands. The figurine measures 5” high x 5 ½” long x
3” deep and weighs 14 ounce unpackaged. Two cards are included. Precious Moments founding artist Samuel J.
Butcher’s artwork has always been inspired by faith, family, and friends. His
soulful illustrations of children with teardrop-shaped eyes were first featured
on popular greeting cards. When Mr. Butcher saw the first sample of a Precious
Moments figurine more than 40 years ago he was awestruck. The sculptor had
captured the very essence of Mr. Butcher’s iconic Precious Moments
artwork Love One Another and
had brought it to life. In that moment, one of this humble artist’s dreams had
come true. In 1978, the original 21
Precious Moments figurines were released to worldwide acclaim and a new collecting/gift-giving
tradition was born. Around the world, Precious Moments became known for its
beautiful, hand-painted porcelain bisque figurines featuring children with
captivating teardrop-shaped eyes and their heartwarming messages of love,
caring, and sharing. Sam attributes his
remarkable talent to a gift from God, and he finds inspiration for many of his
subjects in the Bible and in Nature. The
Enesco Precious Moments Collection beautifully interprets Sam’s inspired
illustrations in fine collectibles, each an exquisite tribute both to the
artist and to the inspiration that will reach out and change your life forever.
