Letter to Paris Year 2000 Limoges Box

A letter bound for Paris and the year 2000 come together on this porcelain box, marking the turn of the millennium with a French flourish. It is a hand-painted Limoges box made in Limoges, France, from the special France series.

Postmarked for the Millennium

The arrival of the year 2000 was celebrated around the world, and Paris marked it with fireworks at the Eiffel Tower that many still remember. This piece ties that moment to an old fashioned letter, the kind once written to friends abroad and sealed with care.
