Green Egg Limoges Box with Gold Stripes and Flowers

Green is wrapped in gold stripes and finished with a floral pattern on this egg, giving it the fresh look of a garden after spring rain. It is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box made in Limoges, France, with the upper half serving as the lid.

Emerald Garden Stripes

Green and gold is a pairing that feels both natural and dressy, like ivy climbing a gilded gate. The gold stripes give the egg structure while the flowers soften it. Each stripe and bloom is painted and gilded by hand in Limoges, so no two eggs are quite alike.

St. Patrick's to Spring Brunch

Its green tones suit a St. Patrick's Day table, a spring brunch or a sunroom shelf among potted ferns. It makes a fine present for a May birthday, when emerald is the birthstone, or for a gardener who has everything. Collectors arranging eggs by color often use it to bridge yellow and blue pieces on the same shelf.
