Paris Street Kiosk Porcelain Limoges Box
The familiar Paris street kiosk, the kind that sells newspapers and posters along the boulevards, is the model for this porcelain box. Its roof and panels are hand-painted in Limoges, France, bringing a corner of the French capital to your shelf.
On the Corner of the Boulevard
Anyone who has strolled through Paris remembers the kiosks, with their domed roofs and walls covered in posters. This box captures that city landmark in miniature, with the details brushed on by hand.

Souvenir of the City of Light
It makes a fine memento after a trip to Paris, a bon voyage present before one, or an anniversary keepsake for a couple who honeymooned there. Francophiles, French teachers and anyone who dreams of an apartment on the Left Bank will find it hard to resist. Set it on a bookshelf beside a stack of French novels, on a desk, or in a curio cabinet filled with travel pieces.
Collectors who love this kiosk often add the six-sided version to see the city from every angle.
