Hedgehog Jewellery Case

Olive green velvet jewellery case with an embellished and embroidered hedgehog in hibernation, echoing the charming illustrations of Margaret Tarrant (1888–1959). This lined jewellery case is designed with a zip closure opening to an elasticated pocket, with 6 ring holders and 4 open storage compartments. Tarrant was one of the most beloved British illustrators of the early 20th century, celebrated for her exquisitely detailed depictions of woodland creatures, fairies and children in a style that combined the delicate observation of natural history illustration with a warmth and whimsy perfectly suited to the gift books and nursery prints for which she became famous. Her hedgehogs, mice and small creatures nestled in autumn leaves and flower borders have a quality of tender attentiveness that made them immediately appealing to generations of readers, and her work remains a touchstone of the gentle, nature-loving tradition in British illustration. A beautiful gift choice for any lucky recipient.
