Why You’ll Love It
An enchanting Veronique Cornish porcelain tea service handcrafted by the celebrated French artisan. This whimsical four-piece set is adorned with delicate sculpted butterflies and blooming foxglove flowers, transforming an everyday tea service into a tiny work of fantasy art. The rounded chartreuse teapot is embellished with raised purple foxglove blossoms and topped with a vibrant blue butterfly perched upon the lid. Matching creamer and teacup continue the floral theme, each featuring butterfly-topped handles and finely hand-painted details. Completing the set is a coordinating serving tray with branch-inspired handles and additional sculpted butterflies.
Perfect for displaying in a fairy-tale cottage, garden room, conservatory, tea parlor, woodland retreat, spring vignette, nursery, or whimsical dollhouse kitchen.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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