Yellow Shoe Limoges Box with Butterfly and Feathers

A sunny yellow shoe, trimmed with a butterfly and a flourish of red feathers, struts across a shelf in this hand-painted porcelain Limoges box. It was made in Limoges, France, and it is pure fashion fun.

Feathers, Flutters and Flair

Bright yellow is a bold color for footwear, and the red feathers push it even further into runway territory. The butterfly adds a lighter, garden-party note, so the shoe feels both daring and sweet. It is the kind of pair someone would wear to be noticed.

Strutting Into Spring

Put it on a dresser, a vanity or a walk-in closet shelf where it can stand among the real shoes. It makes a playful present for a fashion student, a boutique owner, a bride who loves color, or a friend who has never met a pair of heels she could pass up. Shoe collectors who want one in every color find that this yellow version, with its butterfly and red feathers, brings a burst of spring to the lineup and makes the neighboring pieces look brighter too.
