Wine Barrel with Six Bottles Limoges Box
Six wine bottles rest in a porcelain barrel on this figurine box, like the start of a well-stocked French cellar. It is a hand-painted Limoges box made in Limoges, France, a companion to the other wine designs.
From the Chateau Cellar
Oak barrels have aged French wine for centuries, giving it character before it is bottled and laid down. This piece puts the barrel and the bottles together in one scene, painted by hand so the details carry the warmth of a cellar visit.
Vintner's Choice
- Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
- Suits a wine, vineyard or French spirits collection
- Pairs with the wine list and wine glasses box
Hosts, Collectors and Father's Day
Set it on a wine rack, a bar cart or a dining room sideboard. It makes a fitting present for a dinner host, a wine club member, a vineyard tour guide or a dad on Father's Day. It also suits a toast to a new home or a retirement spent touring wine country.
Limoges porcelain is hard-paste porcelain fired at very high temperatures, which gives it a bright white body for painting. The bottles and barrel here were brushed on by hand after firing.
