Description
Limoges boxes are treasured not just for their artistry but for the joy of discovering everyday and beloved subjects captured in porcelain. This striking horse trinket box exemplifies that heritage, crafted with lifelike detail and elegant hand-painting. The horse, rendered in soft gray with darker mane and tail, stands gracefully atop a natural-toned base that doubles as the hinged box.
A golden horse-head clasp secures the box, tying the theme together with thoughtful detail. Inside, the inscription reads “Limoges France, Peint Main, Chamart Exclusive, Jesteup”, confirming this piece as a Chamart exclusive — one of the most collectible ateliers for Limoges porcelain.
At approximately 3 ¼″ tall and 4 ½″ wide, it’s larger than most Limoges boxes, making it a true centerpiece in a collection. Perfect for horse lovers, equestrians, and collectors of French porcelain, this piece captures both movement and refinement in miniature form.
✨ Condition Note: Excellent overall with no cracks or crazing. There is a tiny paint chip on the back side of the horse’s mane, noted for accuracy. This does not detract from display beauty when viewed from the front.
