British Phone Booth Porcelain Limoges Box
The classic red British telephone booth, as familiar as Big Ben and double-decker buses, stands tall in hand-painted porcelain. This Limoges box was made in Limoges, France, and it brings a corner of a London street to the shelf.
Ringing in From London
The red phone box became a symbol of Britain in the 20th century, and travelers still stop to photograph the ones that remain. This piece honors that icon with careful painting by hand, so the red finish and fine lines vary slightly from box to box.

Calling All Anglophiles
It suits a friend just back from a trip to England, a fan of British mysteries and period dramas, or someone who keeps a pot of proper tea brewing every afternoon. A student returning from a semester abroad in London will recognize it instantly.
Display it on a bookshelf beside travel guides, on an office desk, or in a curio cabinet with souvenirs from other trips. It also makes a fun present for a phone company retiree or anyone who still remembers dropping coins into a pay phone to call home. Few city icons are as instantly recognized.
