Why You’ll Love It
A tiny world of tranquility captured beneath glass, this exquisite Fatima Doña creation showcases a graceful halfmoon betta fish drifting through crystal-clear water. Handcrafted in Spain, the delicate hand-blown glass bowl is filled with transparent art resin. The jewel-toned fish, painted in vivid shades of magenta, violet, and deep plum, unfurls its flowing fins above a bed of soft green aquatic grass and sandy substrate. Equal parts sculpture and miniature work of art, it brings a sense of quiet movement and elegance to any dollhouse interior. Styled beside a window, atop a writing desk, or in a refined coastal setting, it becomes an irresistible focal point. The seahorse pedestal shown in the photographs is for display inspiration only and is not included.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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