Why You’ll Love It
This wonderfully expressive hand-sculpted tiger lily by Georgia Marfels combines a dramatic orange bloom with the unmistakable face of a cat. Its curling petals are painted with dark spots and stripes, framing a wonderfully grumpy feline expression with green glass eyes, pointed ears, a sculpted muzzle, and fine whiskers. The long, unpotted stem and pair of detailed green leaves make it easy to incorporate into a custom garden, planter, or a unique floral arrangement. It would be especially delightful in an Alice in Wonderland-inspired display.
Perfect for: Alice in Wonderland scenes, enchanted gardens, witch’s gardens, Halloween dollhouses, fantasy landscapes, magical flower beds, custom planters, and Georgia Marfels collections.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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