Caldwell Shopping Bag Hand-Painted Limoges Box
The Caldwell name gives this porcelain shopping bag a personal story, the kind of piece that brings back a favorite afternoon of browsing. Painted by hand in Limoges, France, the Limoges box keeps the bag's shape in porcelain, so it is a decorative piece rather than anything you would carry.
A Bag With a Name
Named shopping bags are a beloved niche among Limoges collectors, since each one points to a particular shop and the memories made there. A Caldwell bag speaks to anyone who knows the name and the shop's place in their own story.
Wrapped and Ready
- Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
- Fits a shopping bag, fashion or boutique collection
- Pairs with other named bags, purses and hat pieces
On the Shelf With the Others
Set it on a bookshelf, a vanity or a dresser beside other designer bags. It makes a meaningful present for a longtime Caldwell customer, a former employee, or a friend who has collected shopping bag boxes for years.
The Hands Behind the Bag
Most Limoges boxes are painted by hand after the white porcelain is fired, and their metal mounts are fitted by hand as well. Even a simple bag shape passes through many skilled hands.
