Vintage Green Typewriter Porcelain Limoges Box
An old fashioned green typewriter, the kind that clacked through newsrooms and first drafts, is shaped in porcelain here with its round keys painted one by one. Each key, lever and curve of this hand-painted porcelain Limoges box was colored in Limoges, France.
Clack, Clack, Ding
Before laptops there was the steady rhythm of keys and the bell at the end of each line. This typewriter recalls that era, when writers worked late into the night with a ribbon, a ream of paper and a cup of coffee going cold beside them.

Final Draft Celebration
It is a fine present for a novelist after a book launch, a journalist on retirement, a secretary celebrating decades of service, or a graduate with a new English degree. Set it on an office desk, a library shelf, or beside a real vintage typewriter in a study.
A small tribute to every word ever typed, every deadline met and every manuscript finally sent off to the editor.
