This exquisite 1:12 scale hand-painted harpsichord and bench by celebrated miniature artist June Clinkscales captures the romance and refinement of classical music rooms. Crafted of hand-painted wood, the piano features elegant curved lines, delicately painted pastoral vignettes, and scrolling ornamentation that was popular during the 18th and 19th centuries. The lid can be lifted to reveal finely detailed strings beneath. The velvet-upholstered bench, accented with gold leaf, completes the piece.
A true one-of-a-kind artisan work, this rare piece would make a fantastic focal point within a formal music room, grand salon, or drawing room.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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