Heinrich Villeroy & Boch – “The Firebird” Fine Porcelain Trinket Box - Collectors Item!

This exquisite trinket box comes from the renowned Russian Fairy Tales collection by Heinrich Villeroy & Boch, beautifully illustrated by Boris Zvorykin. Titled “The Firebird – In Search of the Firebird,” this piece was released as a limited edition of just 25,000 worldwide, making it a cherished collectible for lovers of folklore and fine porcelain alike. 

The back-marking “W. Germany” indicates manufacture before the reunification of Germany (1990), which fits with the early-1980s context. Because it’s a limited edition and part of the same collection illustrated by Boris Zvorykin, it’s very likely the trinket box was released around the early to mid-1980s.

Crafted in W. Germany, the box is made of high-quality porcelain and features the collection’s signature gold-toned calligraphic inscription on the underside. Its rounded form measures approximately 4.5 inches in diameter and 2 inches high—a perfect size for keeping small treasures, jewelry, or keepsakes.

A lovely find for collectors, fairy-tale dreamers, or anyone who adores elegant European porcelain - a charming and magical addition to your collection. ✨
