Retired Design Eagle on the Water Limoges Box

An eagle over open water, with all the fierce dignity of America's national bird, is the scene on this retired design. It is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box made in Limoges, France, and a strong piece for anyone drawn to wild birds or American symbols.

Soaring Over the Water

Eagles are famous fishers, often seen gliding low over lakes and rivers before a dive, and this box sets the bird right in that element. As a retired design, it is no longer part of current production, which gives it a special place in a collection built over many years.

Freedom on the Shelf

Display it on a study bookshelf beside field guides, on a lake house mantel, or in a den where patriotic pieces gather. It is a fitting present for a veteran, a birdwatcher, a wildlife photographer or a friend retiring after a career in public service. The Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Veterans Day are natural times to bring it out or give it.
