Why You’ll Love It
This is an exquisite three-piece Beate Wickert porcelain canister set. The matching trio of lidded jars is beautifully decorated with hand-painted delicate floral motifs framed by soft green laurel garlands, tiny violet ribbon bows and brilliant 22kt gold trim. Each canister features elegant side handles and a finely sculpted lid topped with a graceful triangular finial, echoing the form of antique European preserve jars and tea caddies. The graduated sizes create a charming display whether arranged together or separately.
Perfect for displaying in a kitchen, pantry, butler's pantry, dining room cupboard, French country interior, or elegant porcelain collection vignette.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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