The original box to this set of figural porcelain ceramic Christmas bells is pretty trashed, but the eight figural bell ornaments inside are in great shape. About 2-1/4" high, the characters include Santa and Mrs. Claus, three girl angels, a snowman, a winter girl holding a wreath, and a cute elf. All have ceramic clappers inside to make them ring and gold cords at the top (some with additional string added) from which to hang from the Christmas tree.
There are no chips or cracks, and only Mrs.

Claus has a bit of wear to her red cold paint - the others are fine. The box lid, marked Yuletide Novelty Tree Ornaments Japan, is torn with lots of tape, not very attractive but it's done the job of protecting the bells over the last 50-odd years.
