Why You’ll Love It
Freshly gathered from the garden and ready for the kitchen, this miniature harvest basket filled with carrots was created by artisan Zara Thompson-Ribeaud. The beautifully woven garden trug basket features delicate openwork sides and a gracefully curved swing handle, the type of traditional harvest basket you might find in cottage gardens and farmhouse kitchens. The hand-sculpted carrots, are each individually shaped with natural variations, subtle roots, and wispy green tops.
The carrots are completely loose and may be arranged inside the basket, displayed individually on a kitchen table, scattered in a garden scene, or placed alongside other produce in a market display.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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.
