While researching antique ateliers in Limoges, we found this Limoges Marquise de Pompadour antique statuette box. This porcelain box dates back from an original 18th Century mold. Limoges boxes were sculpted to recreate aristocratic people portraits and costumes. MP on the front of her dress stands for Marquise de Pompadour. It has been hand painted by one of our museum artists to reproduce the colors and detail of its original piece. 7 1/2 “H. A real treasure for the antique collector.
