Little Mouse Porcelain Limoges Box Figurine
Quiet, quick and full of curiosity, the little mouse has been a favorite subject for miniature art for centuries, and here it appears as a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box. Fired and decorated in Limoges, France, this mouse belongs to a design that has since been retired.
Small Ears, Big Character
A mouse is the perfect subject for a tiny porcelain piece, since the scale of the box suits the scale of the animal. The figure has the alert, friendly look that makes storybook mice so appealing, and the painted finish gives it warmth.
Squeaking Into the Cabinet
- A retired design from the Limoges mouse and rabbit line
- Fits a mouse, small animal or cottage garden collection
- Pairs with cheese, rabbit and country kitchen pieces
Tucked Into Cozy Places
A mouse looks right peeking out from a bookshelf, a sewing table or a kitchen windowsill. It suits a birthday for someone who loves small creatures, a thank you for a neighbor, or a gentle surprise for anyone with a soft spot for classic storybook animals.
Collectors of tiny things often find that the smallest figures end up being the most talked about.
