Why You’ll Love It
This exquisite 1:12 scale porcelain flower basket showcases the unmistakable artistry of celebrated IGMA artisan Marsha Hedrick, whose finely sculpted porcelain miniatures are treasured by collectors around the world. This basket features an intricately pierced gilt openwork lattice that imitates the look of woven wicker while retaining the graceful translucence of fine porcelain. Rising from the basket is an elegantly arched handle adorned with hand-sculpted roses, rosebuds, and softly veined leaves in romantic shades of blush pink, buttery yellow, and soft green. Every blossom has been individually formed and carefully positioned, giving the arrangement remarkable depth and realism. The basket rests upon a scalloped pedestal base with hand-applied gold luster. Signed on the underside.
Perfect for displaying on a parlor table, étagère, vanity, or dining sideboard.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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