~The Smithsonian Collection~
Crafted exclusively by Goebel.

The Smithsonian Collection The world celebrated Smithsonian Institution has opened its libraries to Goebel's master artists for the very first time to present this beautiful collection of fine porcelain home décor pieces with 22-karat gold accents, which pay homage to enduring, botanical prints.

Goebel, a name that has became synonymous with fine hand crafted porcelain, created this line for homeowners who desire an ageless style. The Smithsonian Collection captures historic botanical artwork like the extravagant beauty of the universally cherished rose or delicate sprigs of mistletoe.

This timeless collection, celebrating America's favorite flower, features pink roses with blush and gold accents and white roses with green and gold accents. This first series includes traditional pieces such as vases, matching candlestick holders, picture frames, tea light/votive holders, heart shaped music or trinket boxes, salt and peppershaker sets, sweet dishes, accessory lamps and two sizes of cachepots. Handcrafted in fine porcelain and accented in 22-karat gold, this may be Goebel's most versatile line yet.

In addition to the rose studies, the mistletoe-kissing ball - available with scarlet and gold or emerald green and gold details - is sure to revive the affectionate holiday custom in every household. Inspired by the work of Mary Vaux Walcott, this festive holiday piece features the white berry clusters and ripe green leaves, which have been a symbol of friendship, goodwill and love for centuries.

Each piece comes lovingly cradled in a posh satin lining and placed in a handsome, royal blue, faux leather box. The top of the box is stamped with the official seal of The Smithsonian Collection in gold and contains a certificate of authorization.

The Smithsonian Institution is the world's largest museum comlex and research oganization. Composed of 16 museums and galleries, the National Zoo and research centers, the Smithsonian's exhibitions offer visitors a glimpse into its vast collection numbering over 142 million objects. The Smithsonian represents the treasured icons of the past, the vibrant art of the present and the scientific promise of the future.

*Each Smithsonian porcelain piece comes in a handsome blue gift box.
