Be Patient - HUM 197 4/0 HSC 69139093

Animal Friends Series.

Teach a lesson in patience with the charming Be Patient (HUM 197 4/0). This classic figurine captures a relatable moment of farm life: a young girl clutching her feeding bowl while two hungry, impatient ducks clamor at her feet for their breakfast. In traditional rural life, caring for the poultry was a vital task for children, and this scene perfectly preserves that nostalgic piece of history.

Hand-painted in Rödental, Germany, this figurine is a highlight of the Animal Friends Series. From the eager tilt of the ducks' heads to the girl's focused expression and traditional dirndl, every detail is crafted with the signature Hummel warmth. Whether you are a fan of pastoral scenes or looking to complete your Children & Animal Friends collection, Be Patient is a delightful reminder of the simple joys and gentle responsibilities of childhood.
