Shiny Red Apple Fruit Limoges Box

$229.00 $0.00

A round red apple with its stem on top sits on the shelf like the first pick of the orchard season. It is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box, made in Limoges, France, where the fruit itself is the whole box.

An Apple a Day, in Porcelain

Apples carry a lot of meaning for such a simple fruit: the teacher's desk, the autumn orchard, the Big Apple and the old saying about keeping the doctor away. That makes this box easy to give for many reasons. Because it is painted by hand, the shading of the red skin varies a little from box to box.

Fruit Bowl Favorites

  • Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
  • Starts or rounds out a fruit, kitchen or harvest grouping
  • Pairs with pear, cherry and strawberry pieces

Polished for the Teacher's Desk

Hand it to a favorite teacher at the end of the year, a doctor or nurse who appreciates the joke, or a friend moving to New York City. In the kitchen it sits nicely on a windowsill or open shelf, and in the fall it fits right into a harvest table setting. Limoges porcelain is hard-paste porcelain fired at very high heat, the same tradition that turns out this simple orchard fruit.
