The dish is made of porcelain, I believe, and features a heart design on the side. The heart-shaped candy dish is approximately 5" x 5".

Winnie the Pooh (also known as Pooh Bear, or simply Pooh) is a fictional bear and the main character in Disney's Winnie the Pooh franchise, based on the character Winnie-the-Pooh created by English author A. Milne and English artist and book illustrator E.

Shepard, being one of the most popular characters adapted for film and television by The Walt Disney Company. Disney first received certain licensing rights to the Winnie-the-Pooh stories, characters, and trademarks from Stephen Slesinger, Inc. And the estate of A. Winnie the Pooh is one of the most popular characters adapted for film and one of Disney's most popular characters, especially in terms of merchandising.

Here's a little about the Walt Disney Classics Collection from their website. The Classics Collection started in 1992 with three scenes, Bambi, Cinderella, and Fantasia's Sorcerer Apprentice.

Many other series have since been introduced. Some figurines are limited, and some have been retired. Some of these figurines have risen high on the secondary market. The figurines are made of porcelain, and the process is similar to that use to make Hummel figurines.

Individual pieces are molded, put together, and fired in an oven. Then they are painted and fired again. Each figurine is marked on the bottom, signifying the year it was produced. The marks represent significant milestones in Disney history. The figurines with the first year mark are usually the most desirable. Here's a little info on the Harmony Kingdom boxes I found on the WDCC Duckman's website. Harmony Kingdom's unique collections are handmade of crushed marble and resin in the tradition of the English cottage industry. Artistic Director Martin Perry oversees a growing group of talented artists from Wimberley Mills, his headquarters in the picturesque Cotswolds region of England's West Country. The whimsical animals of the Treasure Jest series, the beautiful blooms of Harmony Garden, and the entire Harmony Kingdom range all display the attention to detail and quirky sense of humor for which Harmony Kingdom's artists are known.

In August, 1997, the first Disney-themed Harmony Kingdom was released, entitled Pooh and Friends. They were first only available through the Disney Theme Parks (Walt Disney World, Disneyland and Tokyo Disney). About Midwest of Cannon Falls.
