Cobalt Blue and Gold Floral Perfume Limoges Box
Gold flowers bloom against deep cobalt blue on this perfume themed porcelain box, which pairs with two small perfume bottles. Its gilded blossoms were painted by hand in Limoges, France, on a true Limoges box.
Midnight Blue, Golden Petals
Cobalt is one of the oldest and most prized colors in porcelain, and gold flowers on that dark ground create a rich, formal look. The two perfume bottles extend the design into a small set fit for an elegant dressing table. Hand painting gives each piece slight variations in the gold work.
The Formal Vanity

Gilded Moments
A set like this suits an evening occasion, such as a fortieth anniversary, a gala birthday, or a wedding day present for a bride who loves classic style. It also makes a meaningful thank-you for a mentor or a matriarch who keeps a formal home.
Display the box and bottles on a mirrored vanity tray, in a china cabinet with cobalt dinnerware, or on a dresser under a lamp so the gold catches the light. Collectors of cobalt pieces often build an entire shelf in this deep blue, and the perfume set adds a graceful note among boxes and vases.
