A pink pill box dressed in hand-painted flowers, this piece pairs a traditional shaped outline with soft, feminine color. It was made of porcelain and decorated by hand in Limoges, France.
Petals in Powder Pink
The shaped silhouette gives the box a bit more personality than a plain round, and the flowers follow its contours like a garland. The pink ground is gentle and warm, the color of sweet peas and spring cardigans.
A Little History in the Hand
Small porcelain boxes became fashionable in eighteenth-century France, where they held snuff, pills and the tiny beauty patches of the day. A floral pill box like this one keeps that elegant tradition alive on a modern vanity.
Gentle Gifts
A Mother's Day present for a mom who loves pink
A thank-you for a maid of honor or a shower hostess
A comforting get well token for a friend at home
Place it on a bedside table to hold a ring overnight, or set it among other pink and floral pieces on a curio shelf. Hand-painted Limoges porcelain from France with a soft, garden fresh look.
