🌸 Why I Chose This Piece
I was immediately drawn to the romantic charm of this Limoges platter — the violets feel like they’ve been lovingly brushed on one petal at a time. I adore how the gold edging catches the light, and the ornate handles make it as display-worthy as it is functional. It’s the kind of piece that tells a story and brings French refinement to any setting.
