Blue Tent Limoges Box with Gold Pinstripes
Fine gold pinstripes run down a blue ground on this tent-shaped box, a crisp, tailored design that looks like it belongs in a gentleman's study. Shaped and decorated in Limoges, France, this is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box with clean lines.
Pitched in Blue and Gold
The tent shape is a little unusual, rising to a peak much like a pavilion at a summer garden fete. Gold pinstripes follow its lines and draw the eye upward, while the blue ground keeps the look calm and classic. It is the sort of design that suits both formal and casual rooms.

Occasions in Pinstripe
It makes a smart present for a father, a grandfather or a host with traditional taste, and a fitting way to mark a promotion or a retirement. On a desk, a bookshelf or a bar cart, the gold catches lamplight nicely. Lined up with other striped pieces, it gives a collection a pulled-together, coordinated feel.
