The Genesis of Our Alice in Wonderland Collection
The Genesis of Our Alice in Wonderland Figurine Collection Our Alice in Wonderland figurine collection was born from a passion for Lewis Carroll's masterpiece and the Figurart workshop's dedication to preserving traditional French craftsmanship. From original illustrations of John Tenniel's Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass to mastering pewter casting and miniature painting methods, Helen began creating her first Alice in Wonderland collectible figurine in 2022. Each Alice Wonderland figurine in our collection represents months of research and artistic development. Every detail of Lewis Carroll's characters, from Alice's astonished expression and iconic blue dress to the Queen of Hearts' tyrannical posture and geometric striped costume, is taken into consideration.

The Art of Creating Wonderland Figurines
Creating each figurine in the Alice in Wonderland collection is a meticulous process that Figurart has perfected over the years. Our collectible figurines begin as raw pewter alloy, carefully selected for its superior quality and ability to capture fine details. The pewter is melted at a precise temperature and cast into custom molds created specifically for each Lewis Carroll character in our Alice in Wonderland collection. The hand-painting process is where each figurine and character truly comes to life under Helen Bourch's expert brush. Multiple layers of paint are precisely applied to ensure that Alice's blue dress maintains its vibrant color through years of display, that the Queen of Hearts' stripes remain perfectly aligned and geometrically precise, and that the Mad Hatter's eccentric costume captures all of its whimsical details and colorful complexity. Every Alice in Wonderland collectible figurine undergoes a rigorous quality inspection before reaching our collectors. Helen personally examines each figurine for accuracy of detail and overall artistic integrity. This attention to detail and commitment to excellence is what makes our French-crafted Alice figurines sought after by collectors worldwide who appreciate authentic memorabilia from the world of Lewis Carroll.

The Legacy of Lewis Carroll and John Tenniel in our Alice Figurines
From Carroll's Imagination to Tenniel's Illustrations
Charles Dodgson, known as Lewis Carroll, created the timeless world of Alice in Wonderland in 1865, which today inspires our collectible figurines. The British author, a mathematician and photographer by training, possessed a keen eye for detail that shines through in his meticulous descriptions of the characters. It was thanks to his collaboration with illustrator John Tenniel that these characters took on their iconic visual form, the very same one we perpetuate in our handcrafted Alice figurines.
John Tenniel: The Visionary of Alice Figurines
John Tenniel, Punch's official illustrator and renowned artist, brought Carroll's characters to life through his remarkably detailed woodcuts. His illustrations of Alice in a blue dress, the Queen of Hearts in perfect geometric stripes, the White Rabbit with his pocket watch, and the Mad Hatter in his eccentric costume have become universal visual references. Our Alice in Wonderland figurines are directly inspired by these Tenniel illustrations, transforming his pencil strokes into hand-painted pewter sculptures.
From Tenniel to Figurart: An Artistic Continuity
John Tenniel's artistry lay in his ability to capture the essence of each of Carroll's characters in a few precise strokes. This same philosophy guides our craftsmanship: every Alice figurine in our collection scrupulously adheres to the proportions and details envisioned by Carroll and visualized by Tenniel. Alice's blue dress, the Queen of Hearts' stripes, the Mad Hatter's expression—all these iconic elements take on a new dimension in our collectible figurines, combining Carroll-Tenniel's British heritage with French pewter craftsmanship.
French Excellence in the Service of the British Imagination
More than 150 years after their creation, Lewis Carroll's characters and John Tenniel's illustrations continue to fascinate collectors worldwide. Our Alice in Wonderland figurines perpetuate this magic by transforming Tenniel's graphic art into three-dimensional sculptures. Each figurine in our collection honors Carroll's boundless imagination, Tenniel's artistic precision, and the excellence of traditional French craftsmanship.
By choosing our Alice figurines, you acquire a fragment of this exceptional cultural heritage, where British literature, the art of Victorian illustration, and the centuries-old know-how of French artisans meet.
