Storage with fantasy character
A trinket box with fairy motif fulfils two functions at once: it's a decorative object that holds its own on the shelf or chest of drawers, and simultaneously a practical container for jewellery, rings or small personal items. It's precisely this dual function that makes such pieces a different kind of fantasy decor than a purely standalone figurine.
Styles and motifs
The boxes and bowls in this selection show widely varying visual worlds. Anne Stokes combines fairies and angels in her designs with darker, romantic atmosphere – the motifs read painterly and expressive. Veronese interprets the fairy motif in Art Nouveau style, bronzed and coloured, with flowing lines and natural forms. Alongside these come boxes with quieter motifs such as dreamcatchers or moon, which also suit interior concepts beyond a pure fantasy collection.
As a gift and collector's piece
Boxes with fairy or angel motif are popular as gifts, because they're practical and beautiful at the same time. For anyone after matching figurines, these sit in the Fairies, Sprites & Angels Figurines category.
