Bright Red Porcelain Sewing Machine Limoges Box
A classic sewing machine in bright red forms this porcelain box, its familiar outline easy to recognize from across the room. It is a hand-painted Limoges box made in Limoges, France, a decorative model rather than a working machine.
Red Thread Running Through
Red gives this machine a cheerful, confident look, the color of a favorite tool that gets used every day. The painter outlines the shape of the machine so its form reads clearly, and every finished piece carries small differences from the brush.
For Everyone Who Sews
- Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
- Suits a sewing, quilting or craft room collection
- Pairs with thimble, spool, button and scissors pieces
Pinned to the Sewing Room Shelf
Set it on a shelf above the real machine, among baskets of fabric, or on a windowsill in a craft room where the red can catch the light. It makes a happy birthday or Mother's Day present for a seamstress, a thank-you for the friend who hemmed your wedding dress, or a congratulations for someone opening an alterations shop. Quilting guild members and costume makers are often drawn to it as well.
Collectors who already own the sewing machine teapot often add this bright red version to complete the theme.
