One of the most beautiful Limoges pieces offered is the flowering bonsai plant. Like real bonsai trees, this Limoges is expertly shaped as a trimmed, leaning shrub, as though affected by a luscious, controlled breeze. Bonsai trees typically look a lot older than they are, in a mature, weathered, cultivated development, yet this porcelain piece evokes a nice touch of youth with its white blossoms and bright green crown.
Bonsai Limoges boxes are alive with vibrant color and delicate grace.
In Japan, the minitree has been an object of meditation for almost 2,000 year. The meaning of the word bonsai is "tree in a dish", and what makes them so fascinating is that they bring the magical form of a tree closer to us, as one shrunken force we can manage and nurture in a portable vessel. Fascinating in looks and a satisfying hobby to pursue, bonsais are a treasured houseplant and a true living sculpture.
You can find a large variety of bonsai plants such as, shrubs, elms, palms, myrtles, and cypress. They take a lot of patient, meticulous care, as even in mini form, they require the same needs for light, water, temperature, and nutrients as normal plants of the same kind. The greatest glory of owning a bonsai Limoges box is that they are just as valuable and visually pleasing, but require nothing more from us than safe place to be on display.
