Ballet Slippers Limoges Box with Binoculars

A pair of ballerina slippers rests atop opera binoculars in this porcelain box, an evening at the ballet captured in one graceful scene. Hand-painted in Limoges, France, this Limoges box celebrates both the dancer and the devoted audience.

Curtain Up

Ballet slippers and theater binoculars belong to opposite sides of the footlights, one to the dancer and one to the admirer in the balcony. Together they tell the story of a night at the ballet, from the overture to the final bow.

For Dancers and Devotees

It makes a lovely present after a recital, a Nutcracker performance or a final season on stage, and a thank-you for a ballet teacher. Patrons of the ballet and season ticket holders will recognize their own evenings out in it.
