Artoria Cat and the Fiddle Nursery Rhyme Limoges Box

$499.00 $0.00

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle: the old nursery rhyme comes to life on this playful porcelain piece. It is an Artoria piece and a retired design, painted by hand as a Limoges box in Limoges, France.

The Cow Jumped Over the Moon

First printed in the 1700s, the rhyme of the cat and the fiddle has been recited at bedtime for generations, with its fiddling cat, leaping cow and runaway dish and spoon. This box focuses on the musical cat, the star of the opening line.

An Artoria Original

Artoria is known among Limoges collectors for detailed, story-driven designs, and this retired piece shows that talent for narrative. Because the design is no longer produced, it has become a welcome find for those who follow Artoria work.

Music Room Melody

  • An Artoria piece, retired design, hand-painted in Limoges, France
  • Fits a cat, music or nursery rhyme collection
  • Pairs with violin, piano and storybook pieces

Give it to a violinist after a recital, a music teacher at the end of the year, or a cat owner who plays in a community orchestra. It also suits a nursery shelf as a keepsake, then moves easily to a music room or a study as the years go by.
