Hat with Pink and Yellow Roses Limoges Box
A lady's hat trimmed with pink and yellow roses becomes a cheerful porcelain box in this retired design. Its brim and blossoms were painted by hand in Limoges, France.
Garden Party Millinery
Flower-trimmed hats belong to summer garden parties, Easter parades and afternoons at the races. The pink and yellow roses on this one give it a sunny, springtime look, as though it was chosen for a lawn party on the first warm day of the year.
Hats Off to the Season
- A retired design, no longer in regular production
- Belongs with hat, fashion or rose themed boxes
- Pairs with purse, parasol, glove and teacup pieces
Derby Day and Easter Sunday
Bring it out for Kentucky Derby parties, Easter brunch or a bridal tea, then let it stay on a vanity or a sunroom shelf all summer. It makes a fitting present for a milliner, a hat-loving friend, a bridal shower hostess or a member of a garden club. A pink and yellow hat looks especially pretty beside white wicker and fresh flowers.
Hat boxes are a favorite fashion subject in Limoges collecting, and flower-trimmed ones like this retired piece add a burst of color to the grouping.
