FAQs

Limoges enamel refers to vitreous enamel plaques and objects crafted in the French city of Limoges, a tradition that saw a major revival during the 19th century with intricate painted enamel techniques.

These pieces generally feature a copper or glass core coated with fused glass enamel, finished with silver or gilt metal mounts and collars.

Authentic items often feature hand-painted details with translucent over-enamelling, sometimes bearing maker marks or French silver poincon hallmarks on the metal mounts.

Display the piece on a vanity tray, within a glass cabinet, or on a mantelpiece to highlight its craftsmanship as a small decorative accessory.

Clean gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical solvents, abrasive polishes, or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
