Why You’ll Love It
This elegant OOAK Potted Agapanthus (Lily of the Nile) plant pairs the artistry of two celebrated miniature makers: Sandra Manring (flowers) and John Alameda (planter). Delicate pale blue blossom clusters rise above graceful arching foliage, while the rich jade-like planter provides a sculptural foundation with an understated sophistication. The airy form and soft coloration create a refined botanical presence with a distinctly serene feel. Perfect for a conservatory, sunroom, formal parlor, or garden terrace vignette.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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