The base of the box depicts a basket painted in a warm ochre color. Furthermore, the hinged lid shows a bountiful harvest resting inside the basket. You can see detailed paintings of red apples, a tomato, purple grapes, and a yellow banana. Other assorted fruits fill the rest of the lid to create a lush and colorful scene. This set also includes a loose tiny porcelain strawberry as an extra surprise. The strawberry fits easily inside the box and adds a whimsical touch to the collection. This offers a fantastic opportunity to own a unique decorative item at an affordable price.

Classic Style and Storage

Collectors often call this style of porcelain hinged container a Limoges box. The name comes from a town in France famous for producing high-quality hard-paste porcelain. However, this specific item serves as an economy version of those famous and expensive collectibles. It provides the same classic look and feel while remaining budget friendly for most shoppers. The lid opens on a sturdy metal hinge to reveal a secret storage spot. You can use this small interior space to keep your rings or earrings safe. A secure metal clasp keeps the lid closed so your tiny treasures stay in place. This piece works well as both a beautiful decoration and a practical storage tool.

Hand-painted Artistry

Skilled artists paint these porcelain boxes by hand to give each piece a unique personality. Because of this manual process, you might notice small variations in the paint and colors. Your specific fruit basket might not match the example photos in every tiny detail. These slight differences ensure that your collectible feels special and one of a kind. The smooth porcelain finish cleans easily with a soft cloth to maintain its shine. Its small size allows it to fit into any display cabinet or on a nightstand.
