Rochard Sicily Travel Suitcase Porcelain Limoges Box
A travel suitcase themed for Sicily, packed with memories of lemon groves and blue water, becomes a porcelain Limoges box in this Rochard design. It was painted by hand in Limoges, France.
Bound for the Island
Sicily sits at the toe of Italy's boot, with Mount Etna, Greek ruins, cannoli and harbor towns all within a day's drive. This suitcase stands for that trip, whether it was a honeymoon, a heritage visit or a long dreamed of tour. Rochard paints the suitcase by hand, so each one carries small variations in color.
Where It Belongs
Put it on a shelf with travel photos, a map of Italy or a bottle of limoncello brought home in a carry-on. It suits a family with Sicilian roots, a couple back from an anniversary trip, or a friend about to leave for a semester in Italy. Travel agents and tour guides who specialize in the Mediterranean often keep one on the desk.

Porcelain making took hold in Limoges after kaolin was found nearby in 1768, and the town has been known for it ever since.
