Re: Do you know what these are?

No.



That's why I can't find a better photograph of them with the skirt.

'Porcelain torso figurines' is the best I can come up with.

I do remember seeing Eric Knowles explain what they were once, on one of the antique shows.

You could leave an opening in the skirt front, so you could keep cotton wool in there, as it sat on a dressing table.
