1982 Franklin Mint Victorian Flower Garden Miniature Egg Collection

Set of 12 gorgeous vintage porcelain enameled miniature eggs individually hand decorated with lovely flowers and 24 carat gold accents. The eggs are from the "Victorian Flower Garden Miniature Egg Collection" by Franklin Mint. They were designed by master miniaturist Margaret Elaine Ryder (1908 - 1998), a leading member of the Royal Society of Miniature Painters, Sculptors and Gravers. The collection was a limited edition issued in 1982. It is extremely rare to find the entire collection still intact, with wooden stand and glass cloche covering included. The eggs measure approximately 1.5" (4 cm) tall. They are decorated with the flowers on the front and back and 24k gold accents on the sides, top, and bottom. The stand and case measure about 6" tall, 6 3/4" diameter.
