Pas de Deux | Pocket Ballerina Curio
Released as part of Hannah Elizabeth’s debut collectible series Edit 01: Pocket Ballerinas, Pas de Deux is inspired by movement, theatre and memory. Each art object is hand signed and dated.
Standing side by side, on top of a delicate china trinket case, the duo Pas de Deux captures a fleeting moment of movement suspended in time. Hand-crafted with delicate layers of white tulle, painted details in white and gold glitter and of course finished with a pair of glittered ballet pointes, ballet shoes and signature florescent rosey cheeks. This piece balances nostalgia with quiet theatricality, like a tiny scene lifted from a dream.
About Edit 01: Pocket Ballerinas Each figure is individually crafted, making every piece subtly unique. Designed as a collectible art object rather than a traditional ornament, each piece invites curiosity, storytelling and a sense of childlike wonder into the home. Designed to be kept, displayed and returned to. Every 'Curio' piece is created using carefully sourced vintage and antique finds, making them entirely unique.

Collector’s Note
Whilst this piece is specifically suited as a gift for an adult ballet dancer or dance teacher, it also makes a lovely gift for young dancers and ballerinas, however, it is a delicate china art sculpture meant for display, not play, so please handle with care.
How to care for your art object
To keep your piece looking its best, display it out of direct sunlight to prevent fading. Maintain a stable environment, avoid extreme heat or dampness. Typical room temperature is perfect. A gentle dusting now and then will keep it fresh, no harsh chemicals needed!
