Why You’ll Love It
A delicate miniature christening set with the beauty of a treasured family heirloom. Carefully fashioned in 1:12 scale, a Victorian or Edwardian style gown and bonnet. The floor-length gown is created from soft cream silk with a high waist in the traditional christening style, tiny puffed sleeves, adorned with the tiniest silk rosettes and pretty lace panels. The matching bonnet features gathered lace ruffles and sweet ribbon details. The display set hangs from a miniature gold wire hanger.
Display this set in a nursery, hang it from an infant's linen cupboard, or incorporate it into a period bedroom setting.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
