Santa with Christmas Sack Limoges Box by Rochard
Santa has his Christmas sack in hand on this Rochard box, loaded and ready for the long night of deliveries. It is hand-painted porcelain, made in Limoges, France, and a jolly addition to any holiday scene.
Ho Ho Hauling
The sack is the classic sign that Santa is on the job, and this piece shows him mid-route rather than resting by the fire. Santa and his sack are the two things everyone looks for on Christmas Eve, and here they come together in a single small porcelain box.

Deliveries Begin Here
Put it under the tree among the wrapped packages, on a hall table where guests come in from the cold, or on the sideboard next to the cookie plate. Santa collectors often add one new figure every December, and this one makes a good choice for a grandparent, a teacher or a mail carrier who works hard all season.
An Old Limoges Habit
Small porcelain boxes were the fashion of 18th-century France, when they held snuff, pills and beauty patches; today they hold holiday memories instead.
