Why is it that we all love shoes so much?  I keep finding myself complementing others about their shoes - and who does not like to receive compliments?  So, it is not a surprise that Limoges collectors have to have a few styles of Limoges Shoe Boxes included in their collection - and you can never have enough of them!

One very popular style for any shopper-at-heart is the Paris Shopping Spree Limoges Box by Beauchamp Limoges.  This exquisite Limoges box features a Shopping Bag with the Arc de Triomphe painted on it, the famous 'Little Black Dress' and, of course, a pair of Black Shoes!  This exquisite Limoges features an Eiffel Tower clasp.

Limoges Tips - Colors used in Porcelain Limoges Boxes

Did You Know that with each color, the Limoges porcelain has to be fired in the kiln?  Limoges boxes are hand-painted with beautiful designs in various colors.  The colors used are in powder form.  Powder is mixed with special oils and applied with a brush.  When gold is used, it is pure 24K Gold powder.   The more colors are used on the Limoges box, the more times it has to be fired in the kiln.  Each firing takes a few hours and the porcelain has to cool off for a few more hours before the next color is applied.  That is why the creation of the Limoges box is so labor-intensive.  The result, however, is a masterpiece - one to be truly cherished!

Bonzai Plant Limoges Box, A Fitting Asian Design Element

For those who enjoy Asian design, the Bonzai plant is a fitting and attractive addition.   Even though Bonzai is known as a Japanese plant, its origins are from the Chinese word "punsai" which means "tree in a pot".   The tradition of planting trees and plants in a shallow planter has been practiced in the far east for 1000 years.  In time, the Japanese practice of planting miniature plants developed into an art form.
