Champagne Bottle Porcelain Limoges Box

A bottle of champagne marked for the year 2000 stands ready for a toast in this porcelain piece, a nod to the night the world rang in a new millennium. This porcelain Limoges box was painted by hand in Limoges, France, and modeled on the bottle itself.

Popping the Cork on 2000

Few New Year's Eves were celebrated quite like the turn of the millennium, and this box captures that moment in porcelain. Champagne itself comes from the region of the same name in northeastern France, so a French-made bottle feels doubly right. The bottle's colors are applied by hand, so each one varies slightly.

Toasts From the Kiln

Limoges is known for hard-paste porcelain fired at very high heat, and a celebration piece like this is painted after that firing is done. Give it for a wedding, an anniversary, a promotion or a New Year's Eve party, or to anyone born or married in 2000. It looks right on a bar cart, a wine rack shelf or a sideboard where celebrations happen.
