Gold Heart Limoges Box with Purple Flowers

Purple flowers bloom across a gold box set on a heart, giving this piece a rich, formal look that still feels romantic. This Limoges box was shaped in porcelain and painted by hand in Limoges, France, where the purple and gold were laid on one careful stroke at a time.

Violet Blooms and Gilded Edges

Purple and gold have been paired for centuries as the colors of royalty, and here they meet on a small scale. The flowers are painted by hand, so the shading of each petal varies a little from one box to the next.

Moments for a Royal Heart

Many heart collectors save a special spot for purple, and this box earns it. Give it on Mother's Day, a milestone birthday, or to anyone whose favorite color has always been purple. It looks lovely on a dressing table, in a glass curio beside other hearts, or on a bedside table where the gold catches the lamplight. Pieces like this also make a fond remembrance for a grandmother who wore lavender every Sunday.
