Villeroy and Boch Old Luxembourg was one of the very first patterns painted on china by the Boch brothers when they founded their Factory in Luxembourg in 1767. The French Brindile design made up of small blue blossoms on a branch in a traditional blue on white china still endures 250 years later. Today the china is made of Premium Porcelain and the motifs are transfers applied by hand in the Villeroy and Boch Factory in Mettlach Germany..Quality is assured. There is a timeless elegance in the design of Old Luxembourg tableware yet it is dishwasher safe and practical for everyday use as well as for more formal dining.
