Why You’ll Love It
A true one-of-a-kind treasure by miniature porcelain artist Teresa Welch, this delicate four-piece place setting was created in 2000 and is an exceptionally rare example of her work. It is inscribed on the underside as a 1-of-1 set. The softly scalloped porcelain pieces are decorated with winding garlands of tiny pink roses and green foliage, framed by narrow burgundy borders and delicate 22kt gold accents.
This place setting is especially lovely displayed in a china cabinet alongside other individual artisan settings, creating the look of a thoughtfully collected miniature porcelain collection.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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