Wheelbarrow of Pumpkins Fall Harvest Limoges Box
Plump pumpkins pile into a wheelbarrow, just wheeled in from the field on a crisp October afternoon. This Thanksgiving themed porcelain box was painted by hand in Limoges, France.
Hauled in From the Field
The wheelbarrow is the workhorse of every farm and garden, and loading it with pumpkins turns it into a symbol of the season's reward. Orange gourds and a well-used barrow speak of hayrides, cider stands and frost on the porch steps, all gathered into one small porcelain piece.
Setting the Autumn Table
- Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
- A natural fit for fall, harvest, Halloween or Thanksgiving groupings
- Looks right beside turkey, scarecrow, acorn and cornucopia pieces
Gratitude in Porcelain
Bring it as a thank-you to whoever is hosting Thanksgiving dinner this year, or tuck it into a fall birthday celebration for a gardener. Set among candles on a sideboard, on the mantel or at the center of the Thanksgiving table, it carries the harvest mood from late September through November.
Pumpkins have been grown in the Americas for thousands of years, which makes this harvest scene feel especially at home on an American holiday table.
