She features a hand-painted porcelain face framed by exceptionally long, flowing brown hair. She is dressed in an ornate black and silver gown accented with black faux-fur trim, a long train, and a classic pointed cone-shaped hat with a delicate white mesh veil. she is suspended by fine strings attached to a miniature wooden control bar at the top.
Perfect for a puppet maker's workshop, fairy tale theater, royal nursery, castle scene, storybook vignette, fantasy display, children's room, or alongside princesses, kings, queens, and other marionettes from this exceptional collection.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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