Fine porcelain I am getting packed into boxes (7)

I believe the answer is:

limoges

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fine porcelain' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'packed into boxes' is the wordplay.
'packed' becomes 'im' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'into' is an insertion indicator.
'boxes' becomes 'loges' ('loge' can be a synonym of 'box').
'im' inserted within 'loges' is 'LIMOGES'.

'i am getting' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for limoges that I've seen before include "French city known for its porcelain" , "French city noted for enamels and porcelain" , "French porcelain centre" , "foreign city" , "French commune" .)
