A single decorative ceramic music box from the Ardleigh Elliott Mimi Jobe’s Fairyland Music Box Collection, identified specifically as “Imagine,” the “Second issue” in the series. The vessel is finished in a deep violet/periwinkle blue glaze dusted with mica or glitter flakes, giving it a speckled appearance. The object is designed in the form of a small lidded urn or two-handled sugar bowl, featuring applied dark metallic (likely pewter-toned) handles, trim, and a finial. A large central panel displays a transfer-printed or painted fantasy scene depicting fairies in a woodland setting, accented by a small blue faux gemstone. The white underside of the base bears extensive black printed text identifying the piece, noting that it plays the music of “Stardust.” The base is marked “©2001 Ardleigh Elliott” and numbered “No. A1181” along with the production number “72042.”
