Round Pink Urn Limoges Box

A classic round urn in soft pink takes on a graceful, traditional form in this porcelain box. The lid lifts from the top of the urn, and the whole piece is hand-painted in Limoges, France.

Classical Curves in Pink

Urns have decorated gardens, mantels and palace halls since ancient times, and this miniature version brings that classical shape down to the size of a hand. The pink finish softens the formal outline, giving it a warm, inviting look.

A Nod to Old French Interiors

Urn forms recall the decorative vases that lined French salons, and this little piece fits easily into a room furnished with antiques or traditional pieces. In the 18th century, small porcelain boxes were carried for snuff, pills and beauty patches, and this urn carries on that refined spirit.

Making Room on the Mantel

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
• Fits a traditional, urn or pink themed collection
• Graceful on a mantel, a side table or a china cabinet shelf

It makes a thoughtful present for a hostess, a mother on her birthday, or a friend who decorates in blush and rose tones. Collectors of traditional shapes often place it beside round, square and oval pill boxes to show the range of classic Limoges forms.
