Limoge Info:
Limoges Boxes are ONLY made in France. Porcelain boxes made anywhere in the world outside Limoges, France cannot legally be called “Limoges” Boxes.
The creation of the Limoges Porcelain box is an arduous and time intensive process of creating a master mold, detail painting by hand of color and design, performing multiple firings and glazing upon the porcelain mold, and a final touch of a metal hinge for opening and closing. The painting of the Limoges porcelain in the Limoges box industry are accomplished by small handed French artisans, as experts at the fine brush strokes required for such detailed work.
