Grandparents Day

Grandparents are the keepers of the cookie jar, the bedtime stories and every school photo ever taken. They deserve a gift that is just as treasured. A hand-painted Limoges box is a little love letter they can set on the dresser and admire every morning. It arrives gift-boxed, so even the youngest grandkid can hand it over with pride. Pair it with a drawing or a note and you have the sweetest gift on the coffee table.

Little Ones and Their Families

So much of this collection celebrates the bond between generations. There are mama animals with babies at their side, from a rabbit in a rocking chair to an antelope and even a panther with her cub. Baby keepsakes include a first tooth box, a first curl box, a baby in a highchair and a sleeping infant tucked in pink. For grandpa, there is a cigar resting in its ashtray, and for the grandma who loves a good outing, a shopping bag that says it all. Every box is hand-painted in France and hinged, with space inside for a baby tooth or a tiny photo.

The Grandma Shelf

Ask any grandparent and they will tell you: there is always room for one more picture frame, and always room for one more box. A lovely family tradition is to give one for every new grandchild, letting the collection grow as the family does. Arrange them on a curio shelf with the baby photos, group them on a dresser tray, or display them in a china cabinet beside the good teacups.
