Why You’ll Love It
A wonderfully dramatic centerpiece for a Tudor feast, this hand-crafted miniature by Val Adams of Gramarye Keep features a whole roasted pig arranged on an ornate pewter platter and surrounded by colorful vegetables. The sculpted clay pig has a wonderfully rustic, hand-finished appearance, while the carrots, greens, and red vegetables add plenty of color to make the platter feel lavish and fresh. Created in the UK.
Perfect for: Tudor and medieval banquet tables, castle dining halls, historic kitchens, feast scenes, and collectors of Val Adams or Gramarye Keep miniatures.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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