Description. This covered enamel box from Émaux de Longwy corresponds to the "Prunelle" model (FAI 10), made around 2005 at the prestigious Atelier d’Art Les Récollets in Longwy, France. Entirely handmade and decorated, it showcases the renowned craftsmanship of the House, particularly its characteristic crackled enamel technique. The cream background with a crackled effect is richly adorned with floral patterns in shades of purple, red, green, and blue, delicately highlighted in black for a refined contrast. A fine golden rim and a matching lid handle complete the ensemble with elegance. The underside bears the official mark Les Récollets – Émaux de Longwy as well as the handwritten note "FAI 10 – Prunelle". The original certificate of authenticity accompanies the piece, attesting to its artisanal manufacture and provenance. A beautiful example of contemporary French decorative art, sought after by collectors of Longwy enamels and decorative porcelain. Condition. Very good overall condition. The colours are vibrant and the gilding well preserved. The photos are an integral part of the description and reflect the exact condition of the item. Dating.
