Rochard Limoges Istanbul Shopping Bag and Turkish Slippers
A shopping bag from Istanbul, packed with a pair of Turkish slippers that lift out, recalls a day wandering the city's famous markets. Rochard made this travel piece in porcelain and painted it by hand in Limoges, France.
Bargains From the Bazaar
Istanbul's Grand Bazaar is one of the oldest covered markets in the world, home to thousands of shops selling carpets, lamps, spices and leather slippers. Rochard turned that shopping trip into a keepsake, with the slippers as their own removable pieces to set beside the bag. Each part is painted by hand, so small differences between sets are expected.
Where East Meets West
Display it on a bookshelf beside travel photos, a dresser, or a curio cabinet filled with souvenirs from abroad. It makes a lovely welcome-home present after a trip to Turkey, a thank-you for a friend who guided you through the markets, or a keepsake for someone with family roots along the Bosphorus. Keep the slippers with the bag so the set stays complete.
