Stack of Literature Books Porcelain Limoges Box
A tidy pile of classic literature makes up this porcelain box, the kind of stack that grows on a nightstand faster than it can be read. Every spine on this Limoges box was brushed on by hand in Limoges, France.
Chapter and Verse in Porcelain
Books stacked one atop another are a familiar sight in any reader's home, and here that small domestic scene becomes a lasting piece. The spines and covers are painted by hand, so the finished box looks at home tucked between real volumes rather than standing apart as an ornament.

A Thank You Between the Covers
Think of it for a librarian on retirement day, an English teacher at the end of term, or the friend who hosts book club each month. It works as well for a new author celebrating a first publication, or a graduate heading off to study literature. Readers who keep a running list of every title they finish will understand it at once.
On a shelf, slide it in at eye level among your favorite novels and let visitors find it on their own. On a desk, it makes a quiet companion to a reading lamp and a cup of tea.
