Brown and Yellow Floral Tea Chest Limoges Box
Shaped like a tea chest, part canister and part urn, this Limoges box is painted in warm brown and yellow with florals. It is hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France, with a cozy, old fashioned feel.
From the Tea Merchant's Counter
Before tea came in neat paper bags, it traveled in chests and canisters, measured out by the spoonful at the merchant's counter. This shape nods to that era, with the warm tones of polished wood and the brightness of a summer garden.

A Cup of Kindness
It makes a lovely present for a tea drinker, a cook with a well stocked pantry, a friend who runs a bed and breakfast, or a neighbor who always has the kettle on. It also suits a housewarming, a kitchen renovation or a Mother's Day morning.
Set it on a kitchen shelf beside real tea tins, in a china cabinet next to a teapot, or on a breakfast tray with a vase of yellow flowers. The brown and yellow palette brings warmth to cooler kitchens and pairs well with wooden cutting boards and copper pans, giving the whole room a welcoming, lived in look.
