One of the sweetest fairy tale couples is depicted on this pendant: the Flower-Fairy Prince and Thumbelina. Standing on one knee, the prince is holding Thumbelina's hand. His face bears a gentle expression as he looks up at the tiny beauty that seems to have been tailored just for him. Thumbelina, on the other hand, seems to be taken aback, raising her hand timidly to her heart. The sweetness and gentleness of the couple is intensified by the light blue, lilac, pink and green tones predominating the painting.

This charming pendant is painted by a famous Russian lacquer artist from Palekh, Vera Smirnova, using traditional miniature lacquer painting techniques. The pendant is made from Rostov enamel and is nested within a German silver frame.
