Why You'll Love It
This enchanting OOAK miniature brings together all the sweetness of the season on one dazzling little serving platter. Created by the talented Sue Ayers, this piece features a metal plate topped with an assortment of hand-sculpted clay Christmas cookies, each meticulously painted and decorated with charming detail. From tiny Santa faces and holiday swirl cookies to wreath cookies and sugar-coated rounds, every piece feels lovingly made, inviting warmth and nostalgia into your miniature holiday scenes.
Style this platter on a dollhouse kitchen counter, on a holiday dessert table, beside a miniature fireplace, or as the star of a festive Christmas vignette. It looks perfect on a dining table, in Santa’s workshop, or on a bakery display shelf—anywhere you want a touch of seasonal magic.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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