Love Story Book with a Rose Limoges Box

A book bearing a love story, with a single rose laid across it, forms this romantic hand-painted porcelain Limoges box. It was made in Limoges, France, and it speaks to readers and romantics in equal measure.

Chapters Written in Roses

A rose tucked into a book is an old sign of affection, a flower pressed between pages to mark a memory. This piece borrows that idea. The book suggests a story still being written, and the rose says the best chapters are the ones shared with someone special.

For Bookworms in Love

Give it on Valentine's Day, a wedding anniversary, or the anniversary of the day a couple first met. It suits a librarian, an author, a book club friend or a partner who reads aloud before bed. Set it on a nightstand beside the novel you are reading together, on a library shelf among favorite romances or on a writing desk. Couples who met over a shared love of books often keep it as a reminder of how their own story began.
