179.00 Dollar US$ What Makes Limoges Boxes Special? Ancienville
- Location: Limousin, Ancienville, Aisne, France
Authentic Limoges boxes are not mass-produced. They are the result of meticulous, handcrafted artistry. Each piece passes through several steps—from molding and firing to painting and glazing—often involving up to 30 individual processes and multiple skilled artisans.
Here are a few elements that distinguish genuine Limoges boxes:
Fine French Kaolin: Only porcelain from the Limoges region, made using native kaolin, qualifies as true Limoges.
Hand-Painted Details: Every box is painted by hand, often using minute brushes to achieve incredible detail.
Artistic Themes: Designs range from animals, holidays, and nature to landmarks, fashion, and fairy tales.
Signature and Markings: Authentic Limoges boxes typically feature markings like "Peint Main" (hand-painted), “Limoges France,” and the artist’s initials or name.
Hinged Construction: Each box includes a hand-fitted brass or metal hinge and clasp, often adorned with a themed design (e.g., a heart, bee, or flower).
