Small Square Burgundy Limoges Box, Gold Stripes and Flowers
Deep burgundy, crisp gold stripes and painted flowers give this small square box a look straight out of a French salon. Rochard made it in the traditional style, hand-painted on porcelain in Limoges, France.
Stripes Worthy of a Salon
Before figural boxes became popular, Limoges boxes were mostly simple shapes dressed in rich color and pattern, and this square piece honors that tradition. The gold stripes give it structure while the flowers soften it. Each element is applied by hand.
A Square Deal for the Vanity
- A Rochard design in the classic Limoges manner
- Joins pattern, floral and square box groupings
- Pairs well with oval and round message boxes
Small Box, Old Tradition
Small porcelain boxes became fashionable in 18th-century France for keeping snuff, pills and beauty patches close at hand. This little square carries that spirit into a modern home, looking quietly elegant on a dresser, a desk, or a bedside table.
Suited to Quiet Taste
It is a refined choice for someone who prefers color and pattern over figurines, or a graceful thank-you for a mentor or host.
