Why You'll Love It
A beautifully composed three-piece, one-of-a-kind porcelain place setting by renowned Japanese IGMA miniature artist Miyuki Nagashima. This signed vintage grouping includes:
-
a ruffled-edge dinner plate
-
a matching saucer
-
a teacup with an elegant aristocratic handle
Each piece is meticulously hand-painted on fine porcelain with Teresa Welch’s signature plum and fruit motif—a lush composition of plums, blossoms and delicate vine work. Gold embellishment frames the artwork with ornate scrolling, giving each piece a refined, heirloom quality.
The bottoms of all three pieces bear Nagashima's hand-painted artist monogram in blue.
Note: Additional Nagashima pieces visible in group photograph are listed separately.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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