There are many different styles of vintage Lefton Leprechauns, from pixie styles to “older” looking Leprechauns with beards. The boy and girl figurines are available in sets as well as individual pieces. Other vintage Lefton Irish figurines featuring the Irish boy and girl have the two together on a base, making it a one piece unit. Some of the figurines feature a music box base that enables the figure to rotate as the music plays.
