Beach Hat on a Seat Bench Porcelain Limoges Box

Someone has left a beach hat on a seat bench, and that easy summer moment is captured here in porcelain. It is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box figurine made in Limoges, France, with the feel of a seaside afternoon on the boardwalk.

Gone for a Swim

A hat left on a bench tells a little story, as if its owner just ran down to the water. The scene is relaxed and sunny, the opposite of a busy day. It brings vacation thoughts to any room, even in the middle of winter.

Seaside Afternoons

• Porcelain box with hand-applied color, made in Limoges

Patch Boxes to Beach Days

Small porcelain boxes became the fashion in 18th century France for keeping snuff, pills and beauty patches, and today they capture subjects as carefree as this one. Display it in a beach cottage, a sunroom or a shelf of seashells, and give it to a friend who counts down to vacation every year.
