Yellow Fainting Couch with Sun Pillow Limoges Figurine

A yellow fainting couch, with a sunny pillow resting on its cushion, invites you to imagine an afternoon of novels and lemonade. This miniature piece is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges figurine box made in Limoges, France.

A Swoon in Sunshine Yellow

Fainting couches became fashionable in the Victorian era, when a graceful place to recline was a must in any proper parlor. The bright yellow upholstery and the sun pillow give this version a cheerful, modern wink. Every detail is painted by hand in Limoges, so the colors and the pillow design vary slightly between pieces.
