Small Round Madame Pompadour Limoges Box, Pink Flowers
Small and round, this Madame Pompadour box carries a ring of pink flowers in the gracious French court manner. Made in Limoges, France, the little round was painted by hand from rim to base.
A Petite Pompadour
The small size gives this round an intimate feel, the sort of piece you pick up and turn in your hand. Pink florals in the Pompadour style recall the elegance of eighteenth century Versailles, where porcelain and flowers were close companions. Here that spirit is scaled down to a charming miniature.

Sweet Spots for a Small Round
It slips easily onto a nightstand, a jewelry tray or a narrow shelf between books. It makes a delicate present for a flower girl, a bridesmaid, a goddaughter's birthday or a friend returning from a trip to Paris. Collectors working toward a full Pompadour set often find the small round fills a gap neatly.
Light enough to carry from room to room, it brings a touch of French grace wherever it lands.
