Lot 696: A Collection of Twenty-Four Porcelain Spice Jars and Four Large Canisters Attributed to Lenox Village
This collection consists of porcelain kitchenware modelled as miniature Victorian-style buildings and shops, attributed to the Lenox Village series. The items comprise twenty-four miniature spice jars and four larger kitchen canisters. The spice jar set is housed in a bespoke gabled wooden wall rack with four tiers and a small drawer to the lower section. The jars represent a variety of architectural styles, each titled with specific spice names: Basil, Rosemary, Oregano, Tarragon, Bay, Onion, Chive, Dill, Allspice, Celery, Paprika, Thyme, Sage, Pepper, Marjoram, Parsley, Saffron, Clove, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Coriander, Mustard, Garlic, and Ginger. The four larger canisters represent shops including The Bake Shoppe (Flour), The Tea Shoppe (Tea), The Cafe (Coffee), and The Sweet Shoppe (Sugar). The items are manufactured from fine porcelain with a glazed finish. The decorative scheme features transfer-printed pastel details, floral motifs, and architectural elements. Each piece includes a removable lid integrated into the design of the roof.
