Black Grand Piano Rochard Limoges Box with Music Book

A black grand piano waits with a small music book close at hand. Rochard shaped this porcelain Limoges box and painted it by hand in Limoges, France, as a salute to every recital and every hour of practice.

Prelude in Porcelain

The grand piano is the centerpiece of concert halls and parlors alike, and its black finish is recognized anywhere. Rochard adds a little music book to complete the scene. Every element is painted by hand, so each finished piano carries subtle differences.

Bravo After the Recital

Give it to a student after a first recital, a conservatory graduate, or a piano teacher retiring after years of lessons. It also suits a church organist, a choir accompanist, or a parent who drove to countless practices. Set it on top of a real piano, on a music room shelf, or in a studio waiting area where students can admire it. Musicians tend to collect their instruments in every form, and this one makes an elegant first note.

A French Porcelain Legacy

In 18th-century France, small porcelain boxes became fashionable for carrying snuff, pills and beauty patches, a tradition this piano now carries forward.
