Snail & Critter Collectors

Not every animal lover wants a puppy. Some people go weak at the knees for a snail with a swirly shell, a lizard soaking up the sun or a ladybug on a daisy. They are the ones who carry beetles off the sidewalk and know which garden spider lives by the porch. Limoges snail and critter boxes are a quirky, clever gift that proves you really get them. Each one is hand-painted in France, hinged and arrives gift-boxed.

Here the small stuff takes center stage. An escargot box winks at lovers of French food, a white snail glides along in pearly tones and a frog hitches a ride on a snail's back. Lizards bask on logs, a locust perches like it owns the place and a beetle shows off a jewel-bright shell. Butterflies land on daisies and brass flowers, ladybugs nap in the grass and a squirrel clutches its acorn. There is even a python-wrapped hat for the bold dresser and a Year of the Snake box for zodiac fans.

Critter collectors love the overlooked, so their displays are full of surprises. Nestle snails and lizards in a terracotta saucer with a little moss, or set butterflies along a sunny windowsill. A potting bench or greenhouse shelf makes a charming home for the whole crew. An escargot box is a witty gift for a Francophile or a chef, and a ladybug is a sweet good-luck token. Best of all, snails are the official mascots of taking it slow, so the collection grows at exactly the right pace.
