Elves with Paint Palette Limoges Box

Elves are hard at work with an artist's palette, as if caught mid-brushstroke on a masterwork of their own. The little scene is hand-painted porcelain, made as a Limoges box in Limoges, France.

Elfin Artists at Work

Elves are usually busy in Santa's workshop, but these have traded toys for paints. Pairing them with an art palette gives the piece a playful, storybook feel that blends fairy tales with fine art. It is a cheerful subject that sparks a smile from anyone who has ever picked up a brush.

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France

Brush With Magic

Set it in a home studio, on a bookshelf of fairy tales, or in a curio among other fairy pieces. It is a fun thank-you for an art teacher, a birthday surprise for a painter, or a holiday present for anyone who loves elves. During December it can join the Christmas display, then return to the studio shelf for the rest of the year.
