Curious George on a Storybook Limoges Box

That famously curious little monkey has found a book to sit on, and judging by the look on his face, mischief is not far off. This hand-painted porcelain Limoges box was made in Limoges, France, and is finished with touches of gold.

Turning the Page With George

Curious George has been getting into trouble on the printed page for generations, and countless readers learned to love books right alongside him. Here he perches on a volume of his own, painted by hand, with gold accents adding a little shine to the scene.

Bookshelf Mischief

Set him on a reading nook shelf, a library desk or the windowsill beside a favorite armchair. He also looks right next to a stack of well-worn picture books on a nursery bookcase, or in a classroom where reading time is the best part of the day. Give him to a retiring teacher or librarian, to a new parent who wants to share the stories they grew up with, or to a friend who still keeps a copy of the original on the shelf.
