Why You’ll Love It
A handsome Victorian gentleman who looks as though he’s just stepped out of a lamplit parlor. Handcrafted in porcelain and finished with hand-painted blue eyes and curly blonde hair. He’s dressed in a classic black wool waistcoat with matching trousers, a crisp white shirt, and a striking blue brocade-style vest with tiny gold buttons. He has moveable arms and makes a refined gentleman caller, a barrister, or the dignified host of an elegant evening. Place him beside a miniature writing desk, near a fireplace mantel in a gentleman's study, or standing at the ready in a formal entry hall 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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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.
