Vintage Suitcase Limoges Box with Plates Inside
An old-fashioned suitcase, the kind once stacked on train platforms and steamship docks, opens to reveal a set of little plates packed inside. The case and its contents were painted by hand in Limoges, France, as a Limoges box.
Packed With Fine China
A suitcase full of plates is a fitting idea for a piece from Limoges, a city famous for its dinnerware. The vintage luggage shape brings a sense of adventure, and the plates inside add a pleasant surprise when the lid comes up. Each piece is painted by hand, so details vary slightly.

Bon Voyage, Bon Appetit
This makes a clever present for a newly married couple setting up house, a friend moving across the country, or a retiree finally booking that grand tour. It also suits a collector of fine china, a caterer, or a travel writer who never leaves home without a notebook.
Display it open so the plates show, on a hall table, a china cabinet shelf or a bookcase beside travel souvenirs. Collectors of luggage pieces enjoy a suitcase with something inside, and this one tells a little story about Limoges itself.
