Limoge Chocolate Pot~

Can I say it fast enough and loud enough?? 

 Look at my absolutely gorgeous hand painted HAVILAND LIMOGES FRENCH Chocolate Pot!! 

 Isn't it stunning, enchanting and just exquisite?





I just fell in love when I laid eyes on this stunning Limoges piece. It could be used as a coffee pot, chocolate pot or Tea Pot.




I almost stumbled over the others when I saw it, I mean, I could not get my hands on it fast enough! Oh heavens, I was not one bit pushy, they had no idea that it had to be mine! I was calm, cool and very collected. Oh dear, I was truly taken away with it's breathtaking floral art design! The sweet pink, burgandy and yellow roses and all nestled in beautiful greenery, what was not to love? Oh my goodness, I just pictured it sitting in my home somewhere. I just know that the handle pure gold, pure elegance.  As you can see by the pictures, the roses are very delicate and the colors very soft and truly captivating.

 My new Chocolate Pot was made by the Haviland France Co. It's one of my treasures I purchased when I went to the Round Top Antique Show early in April.  I'm tickled with it, to say the least! 
Well, sweet friends, I'm delighted that you dropped in to see my "pretty!"  Thank you so very much, made my day~

 Hope you all have a happy and fun day! 

 I'll be joining these friends, I'm always up for a party~

    Wow! It is gorgeous! I think my 'new' tea cup and saucer is the same design. It looks beautiful with the pretty flowers, too! Enjoy your day my friend! Sweet hugs!

    Good Morning, Nancy. So happy you brought this lovely chocolate pot home! What a fabulous find. My husband purchased an antique chocolate set for me many years ago and I cherish it. I discovered the differences between the spouts for chocolate, coffee and tea pots!

    Oh My! It is a thing of beauty!!! What a delicious find, I don't know how you kept your wits about you after laying eyes on it...I know mine would have flew away. My heart always trips a beat when I see Limoge, France on a piece.
