The history of Limoges Boxes is fascinating — and so is the detailed process of how they are handmade one-by-one 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. “Peint Main” is French for “hand-painted.” Each model is often made in very limited numbers, & signed by the artists or the “atelier,” which is the workshop, studio or manufacture Located in satin black box 25
