Angel in Pink and Blue Porcelain Limoges Box

Soft pink and gentle blue dress this angel, a heavenly subject that feels right at home in a nursery. Painters in Limoges, France finished this porcelain Limoges box by hand, angel and all.

Guardian in Pastel

Angels have watched over Limoges collections for generations, and pairing pink with blue keeps this one gentle and balanced. The two colors also make it a thoughtful choice when a baby's arrival is still a surprise. Every brushstroke is applied by hand, so no two finished angels are exactly the same.

Small Boxes, Long History

Little porcelain boxes became fashionable in 18th century France, when ladies and gentlemen carried snuff, pills and beauty patches in them. The tradition of painting them by hand after the white porcelain is fired still carries on today.
