Red Lipstick Tube Porcelain Limoges Box
A tube of red lipstick, twisted up and ready for the evening, becomes a tiny porcelain keepsake in this Limoges box. The case and the bold red color are hand-painted in Limoges, France, so the piece looks like it just rolled out of an evening bag.
A Signature Shade
Red lipstick has been a symbol of confidence for about a century, and this box captures it in miniature. The painter picks out the case and the rich red bullet by hand, giving each piece slight differences in tone and shine.

Gloss for Every Occasion
Set it on a vanity tray, a bathroom shelf beside real cosmetics, or a dressing table where a bit of red will catch the eye. It makes a playful present for a makeup artist, a cosmetics counter favorite, a bride getting ready on her wedding morning, or a friend celebrating a sweet sixteen or a fiftieth birthday with equal flair. It also suits a thank-you for the stylist who did everyone's hair and makeup for the big day.
Collectors who love a classic red lip often keep this piece close to the mirror.
