Uncle Sam Top Hat with Heart Limoges Box

Uncle Sam's famous top hat, paired with a patriotic American heart, makes a bold red, white and blue statement in porcelain. This is a hand-painted Limoges box, made by hand in Limoges, France.

Hats Off to Old Glory

Few symbols are as instantly American as Uncle Sam's tall hat. Adding a heart turns it into a message of love for country, warm rather than formal. The patriotic colors are painted by hand, so each hat carries its own small variations in line and shade.

A Star-Spangled Display

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
• Belongs in a patriotic, Americana or July 4th collection
• Pairs well with flag, eagle and Liberty Bell pieces

For Patriots and Public Servants

This is a fitting present for a veteran on Veterans Day, a new citizen after the naturalization ceremony, or a public servant retiring after years of service. It also makes a cheerful hostess thank-you at a Fourth of July barbecue.

Summer on the Mantel

Set it on a mantel or entry table from Memorial Day through Labor Day, then let it join a year-round Americana shelf. Grouped with flags and bunting, it becomes the centerpiece of a holiday display.
