You have 3 ARNART Imports - Banfi Products Corp Decanter figurines from 1970. Each decanter figurine's head can be removed and there iscork inside the lid, hand painted, matte finish, made in Japan, discontinued.

Arnart Creations / Arnart Imports company (1953 until 2001)
Arnart company merely imported customized products, mainly via their US office located at 212 5th Avenue. An interesting fact in this context is that even after the 'Arnart 5th Ave.' mark had been introduced in 1957, Arnart actually continued to use the 'Arnart Creations Japan' stickers. Most items were made in Japan, and Arnart Creations eventually was renamed into Arnart Imports, Inc.

It appears there is a very small market for this type of decanter.
Very few are presently listed for sale, and the listed ones have been for sale for some time.

This particular fowl is listed at $27.95 and has been for sale for over 2 years - still not sold.
www.ebay.com/.../184426668666

This fowl decanter was recently sold on eBay (only similar decanter sold over the past several months).
It sold for $11.25 plus shipping. This item had been listed for sale for over 3 years and had to be reduced in price to sell.
www.ebay.com/.../254238961060?hash=item3b31d2ada4...

Since a sold item represents the current value, the item that sold for $11.25 would be considered the current value.
Since you have 3 items, one may be more valuable, but it does appear that your items may take a long time to sell - at any price.
These may be good yard sale items or list them on local sites like Craigslist, or Facebook marketplace with all offers considered with local pick up and you may get a faster sale.
List 3 together and start with a higher price; maybe $45-$50.
Reduce price if no offers are received.

These are easy auctions to list in and most are free.
Just Google:
How to list on Facebook marketplace or Craigslist.
