A Wise Range of Limoges Boxes

For all you owl lovers out there, www.LimogesBoxCollector.com has many lovely French porcelain owl Limoges boxes to choose from and collect.  Detailed and adorable, these trinket boxes come as single owls or owl pairs, and any of them would be a *wise* choice. 



In mythology, the Goddess Minerva is symbolized by an owl, representing wisdom.  Owls have a keen ability to see in darkness and obscurity which makes them synonymous with depth and intellect. Very often you will see owls used as the insignia of libraries, teaching facilities, and bookstores.  The Owl Limoges box above is quite a intelligent looking owl type, having a scholarly poise about him. 


Another trait that owls have is nocturnal activity, and when we describe someone who likes to stay up and do things late into the night, we call them a "night owl".   Owls have large, watchful eyes that make them seem perpetually alert and ready for action.  Night owl Limoges boxes have a lovely hand-painted night sky base, with a gorgous owl ready to light up your home, day or night!

  1. I am not sure how much wisdom owls have or can give anyone else, but, they sure make great Limoges collectibles.
