Hand-Painted Christmas Tree Limoges Box
A decorated Christmas tree, painted by hand on porcelain in Limoges, France, gives this Limoges box the glow of the season. It is a small evergreen that comes out each December and never drops a needle.
O Tannenbaum in Porcelain
The decorated tree has been the heart of Christmas in homes for generations, from candlelit German parlors to living rooms strung with colored lights. This piece captures that centerpiece in miniature, ready to stand among the season's other treasures.
Trimming the Collection
- Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
- Fits a Christmas, winter or holiday collection
- Pairs with Santa, ornaments, snowmen and wrapped presents
Deck the Halls
Place it on a mantel among evergreen sprigs, on a dining table beside candles, or on a desk at the office where a full tree would never fit. It makes a lovely hostess thank you at a holiday party, a first Christmas memento for a couple in a new home, or a Secret Santa present that will be kept for years.
Many collectors build a whole holiday village around a single tree, adding Santas, sleighs and toys each year. Starting with a tree gives that tradition a natural center, and it looks just as good on its own on a windowsill with snow falling outside.
