Description
Candlelight flickers across the lid of the piano. It is the evening of the winter salon, and the drawing room is crowded with friends in velvet and pearls. As the first notes of a waltz rise from the keys, a girl of nine steps forward in a tulle skirt and lifts onto her toes. For three minutes, nobody breathes. When she curtsies, her teacher at the piano is the first to applaud, and the loudest.
This box captures that magical union of music and movement. A ballerina poses mid-performance on a piano, with candles adding a warm, old-world glow to the scene. It makes a graceful gift for a pianist, a young dancer after her first recital, a music teacher at the end of the year, or a couple who met at the ballet. Display it on a real piano among sheet music and metronomes, where it will look as though the performance never ended.
