Gold Heart with Dusty Rose Flowers Limoges Box
A gold heart is painted with dusty rose flowers, a soft and romantic pairing that feels both vintage and timeless. This heart was hand-painted on porcelain in Limoges, France, as a Limoges box.
Roses Gone Soft and Dusty
Dusty rose is the color of pressed flowers, old love letters and grandmother's favorite teacup. Set against gold, those muted blooms take on a warm glow that suits romantic and traditional rooms alike.

Shaped in the 1700s Tradition
Small porcelain boxes became the fashion in 18th-century France, prized for keeping snuff, pills and beauty patches close at hand. Limoges artisans continue the craft, painting each box by hand after firing.
