If you have not been able to identify a Cybis human-figure sculpture because you do not know its name and thus cannot find it in the Name Index, this page may be able to help.
IMPORTANT! BEFORE YOU EXAMINE THE VISUAL INDEX, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR FIGURE IS NOT SHOWN IN ANOTHER ARCHIVE POST INSTEAD OF IN THIS ONE.
If your piece is signed M. B. Cybis, please see this Archive post. These pieces often look like Cordey in design.
For any religious figure (madonna bust/figure, Jesus bust/figure, angel, saint, or nativity group) go into the Religious Items category and choose the appropriate Archive post from there.
If the figure has wings but is not an angel or a bearded male flying, it is in the Flights of Fantasy post, unless the figure is leaning against a heart; that figure is in the Giftware post.
All the Cybis busts of children are on the Child Portrait Busts page. Adult busts are shown on this page under their respective gender heading.
If it is a child kneeling and looking into a Christmas stocking, it is one of the Holiday Children.
If it is a small sleeping baby on a crescent moon or in a crib/cradle, look in the Giftware post. However, if a lamb is next to the baby, the piece is from the second Nativity series
If your piece depicts a Native American/American Indian, it is in the North American Indians post.
If it is a ballerina, it is in the Ballet post.
Only seven Cybis pieces combined a male and female figure on a single base; they are shown in the final section of this page. The three non-religious mother-and-child figures are in the Females section here.
Some Cybis pieces were made in more than one colorway, and/or may have slightly differing decorative elements; for example a pink version of Betty Blue was made one year as a gallery event piece, and some standard retail pieces were offered both in plain white and in color. The examples shown below represent a standard retail version of that particular design and so it’s possible that yours might vary.
Each thumbnail is a link to the Archive page on which that piece is illustrated and described.
There is no Visual Index for non-human Cybis figures and objects. However, those can be easily found by looking under the appropriate Category link (Animals, Flowers, Giftware/Home Decor, etc.) The Category links are on the right-hand side of every post (and also above the footer) on desktop and laptop displays, but are all pushed to the bottom on mobile devices. Unfortunately, I have no control over the mobile device layout.
The images below are arranged so as to provide a symmetrical desktop/laptop display layout and a usable view of the sculpture. They are not arranged alphabetically, chronologically, nor in size-proportion to one another.
Some mobile devices will not display this particular page as it was designed to look, but the thumbnail links will still operate.
