Green Heart with Red Flowers Limoges Box

Red flowers bloom across a green heart on this cheerful porcelain box, a bright pairing of colors that feels like a summer garden. It is a hand-painted Limoges box, its flowers painted by hand in Limoges, France.

Poppies in the Grass

Red and green are natural partners, the colors of poppies in a meadow and roses against their leaves. On a heart shaped box they feel warm and romantic, and they also bring a festive note that suits the holidays.

A Heart for Two Seasons

Display it in summer among garden and flower pieces, then move it to a December mantel where red and green take center stage. Few boxes switch seasons so easily, which makes this one a favorite with collectors who rotate their displays.

Gift Ideas in Red and Green

• A Christmas present for someone who loves gardening
• A Valentine for a partner with a green thumb
• A thank-you for a florist who made a wedding bouquet

Pair it with the green floral heart for a matched set, or among the teal, lime and orange hearts for a rainbow row. Hand-painted in Limoges, France, it brings warmth to any shelf.
