Lipstick in Red, Hand-Painted Limoges Box
A tube of classic red lipstick, the finishing touch of every great evening look, becomes a playful porcelain piece here. It was hand-painted in Limoges, France, as a Limoges box meant for the vanity rather than the lips.
Painted the Town Red
Red lipstick has signaled confidence for a century, from silver screen stars to modern runways. This box captures that bold swipe of color in porcelain. The red is applied by hand, so its depth and shine vary slightly from piece to piece, the mark of real brushwork rather than a printed finish.

A Kiss of Color
It is a fun birthday surprise for a friend who never leaves home without her signature shade, a thank you for a makeup artist after a wedding, or a congratulations for someone opening a salon. Set it on a mirrored vanity tray beside real perfume, on a powder room shelf, or among other fashion pieces in a curio. Red is a strong accent color, so it pops nicely against white, silver or black decor.
