Large Champagne Bottle Retired Design Limoges Box

Tall and proud, this large champagne bottle is the porcelain equivalent of popping the cork on a big night. It is a hand-painted Limoges box from Limoges, France, made in a design that has since been retired.

Pop the Cork

Champagne has always belonged to milestones: weddings, promotions, a new baby, the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve. This bigger bottle carries that sense of occasion, standing taller than the usual wine and spirits boxes. It is a natural anchor for any celebration grouping.

Raise a Glass

Give it at a wedding toast, a fiftieth anniversary dinner, a retirement party or the launch of a new business. It also makes a smart thank-you for the friend who always brings the bubbly. Wine collectors and sommeliers tend to appreciate the nod to their favorite subject.

Setting Up the Bar Shelf

• A retired design, painted by hand in Limoges, France
• The taller bottle makes a clear centerpiece among smaller ones
• Fits wine, spirits, toast and New Year groupings

Set it on a home bar, a bar cart, a sideboard or a den bookcase, where its height gives a row of smaller bottle boxes a focal point.
