New York Skyscraper with Cars Rochard Limoges Box
Horns honk and taxis crawl past the most famous skyscraper in Manhattan. Here the Empire State Building rises above a row of little cars, all shaped as one Rochard Limoges box and hand-painted in Limoges, France.
The City That Never Sleeps
The tower and the traffic at its feet are porcelain, sculpted together into a snapshot of city life. Since 1931 the Empire State Building has stood as a symbol of New York ambition, and it remains one of the most visited landmarks in the world. Rochard captures that skyline icon with a bit of street-level bustle.

Skyline Spots
Give it to a New Yorker who moved away, a couple who got engaged in Manhattan, a Broadway fan, or someone starting a new job in the city. It sits well on an office desk with a window view, a bookshelf beside city guidebooks, or a curio cabinet full of travel pieces. Nobody needs to explain this subject, which makes it an easy pick.
