Round White Limoges Box with Painted Flowers

A classic round shape in white porcelain carries a floral pattern across its lid, the traditional style that many collectors start with. This hand-painted porcelain Limoges box was made in Limoges, France, and its simple form lets the painted flowers take center stage.

Blossoms on a Round Lid

Round boxes are the backbone of Limoges collecting, the shape that harks back to the earliest pill and patch boxes. A white ground with flowers keeps the look gentle and easy to pair with other pieces. It works as well on a formal dressing table as it does on a bedside tray.

The Traditional Starting Point

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
• Fits a traditional, floral or pill box collection
• A good first piece for someone new to Limoges boxes

A Quiet Bloom for Every Room

Small porcelain boxes became fashionable in 18th century France for keeping snuff, pills and beauty patches, and this round floral design carries that tradition forward. Give it for a birthday, Mother's Day or as a bridesmaid thank you, or keep it on a nightstand where it greets you each morning.
