Nursery, Prams and High Chairs Limoges Boxes
Nursery, prams and high chairs Limoges boxes are made for the birth announcement, the christening and the first birthday. Blue and pink prams roll beside baby carriages, a mother pushes one along, and babies sit in high chairs with their plates or stand in playpens. The bedroom scenes are especially tender. A baby lies in a bassinet basket, another sleeps in a pink bed with a pacifier, and Rochard offers a baby in a blue bed and a teddy tucked in for the night. Twins get their own pieces too, with twin boys, twin girls, and a boy and girl sharing a bed, a kind nod to parents who just doubled their laundry.
For the storybook side, there are Mother Goose, the cat and the fiddle from Artoria, and a mother rabbit rocking her baby. A round box with a pram design and a blue egg with a stroller suit a simpler taste. Each piece is Hand-Painted porcelain from Limoges, France, with a hinged lid. Grandfathers buy these as often as anyone, usually the blue pram or the pink high chair, and the box tends to outlast the crib, ending up on a dresser holding the first lost tooth.
