Five Dollar Bill with Lincoln Limoges Box

Honest Abe gazes out from a five dollar bill on this porcelain piece, a clever twist on the money in your wallet. Painters in Limoges, France gave this Limoges box its color, so it is one bill that will never be spent.

In Lincoln We Trust

Abraham Lincoln has looked out from the five dollar note for more than a century, a reminder of the president who held the country together. Turning that familiar bill into porcelain makes a witty, very American keepsake from a very French craft. The details are colored by hand, giving each piece small differences in tone.

Banking on Porcelain

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France

Paid in Full Occasions

This makes a fun present for an accountant after tax season, a banker on a promotion, a new small business owner who just made a first sale, or a graduate starting a finance career. History buffs and Lincoln admirers will appreciate it just as much, especially those who have visited Springfield or the memorial in Washington. Set it on an office desk beside a calculator, on a bookshelf near presidential biographies, or by the register of a family business as a lucky charm.
