Concorde Penicaud Large Jewelry Chest Limoges, Limited Edition
The Concorde is a large porcelain jewelry chest from the Penicaud workshop, made as a limited edition and painted by hand in Limoges, France. Named for the great Paris square, it has the formal, traditional bearing of a piece meant for a grand bedroom.
Place de la Concorde
The Place de la Concorde is the largest square in Paris, ringed by fountains and anchored by an ancient Egyptian obelisk. A chest that borrows its name signals classic French taste, the kind of decoration that never seems out of fashion.

A Dresser Worth Dressing
Large chests like the Concorde are meant to be used: rings and necklaces tucked inside, a watch set down beside it each evening. Its traditional shape blends with antique furniture as well as with simpler modern rooms that need one strong, elegant accent.
It makes a meaningful present for a couple marking a decade or more together, or for a collector ready to move from small boxes to a true signature piece. The Concorde also comes in a more brightly painted version, and owners of one sometimes look for the other.
