Just Imagine … Enjoying the tradition of taking tea with friends; relaxing alone with a beautifully brewed coffee and good book; enjoying a French style afternoon tea party (complete with French Pastries of course); or hosting a sophisticated dinner party for a very special guest … all whilst indulging in a little French finery … with your very own Limoges Porcelain all the way from Limoge, France.
Limoges Porcelain pieces are often famously known for the exquisite Limoges Porcelain boxes, however, there are absolutely stunning pieces which one can use every day. The classic tea cup! (or coffee mug if you would prefer).
It is thought the first limoges porcelain pieces were created in France late in the 18th century, where highly skilled craftspeople and artists began to manufacture and decorate porcelain pieces in Limoge, selling them throughout Europe. Limoges, is one of the oldest cities in France and is famous for its exquisite porcelain. Rich deposits of kaolin ‘the essential ingredient used in making porcelain paste’ was discovered around Limoges towards the end of the 18th Century.
Limoges Porcelain has been treasured by collectors and lovers of fine china worldwide for centuries. Still exquisitely created in Limoges-France, superior manufacturing processes show the porcelain is of the finest translucent quality, and perfect at any time for those lingering cups of tea.
Today the famous Limoges porcelain is a shining example of French-style luxury that is enjoyed throughout the world! Legle de Limoges porcelain produces a gorgeous range of products in an assortment of stunning colours from pastels to bold, with each piece featuring beautiful hand painted in 24k gold edging or a stylish platinum edge finish.
Enjoy one colour for classic style, or be daring and mix and match colours for a very French effect. Limoge porcelain is a wonderful gift to receive, perfect for special birthday’s, to mark a very special or personal occassion, engagements, weddings & anniversaries. You can discover more about Limoge porcelain and see the beauty of this exquisite product which has stood the test of time over the centuries at our e-commerce store malmaison.com.au. Limoge porcelain is an absolute treasure to admire, use or give as a gift.
The beautiful pastel colours are particularly gorgeous, I personally love treasuring the moment of drinking tea out of my Limoge Green & White Striped Breakfast Cup and Saucer every morning at breakfast.
