Rochard Boston Terrier Porcelain Limoges Box

Dapper and alert, the Boston terrier earned the nickname American gentleman for its tidy markings and polite manners. Rochard sculpted this small breed as a figurine box and painted it by hand in Limoges, France.

The American Gentleman

The Boston terrier was bred in Massachusetts and is one of the few breeds that truly began in the United States. Friendly, compact and full of personality, it became a city favorite and remains a beloved companion. The dog forms the whole box here, so the figure reads clearly as a Boston from across a room.

Who Will Want This Boston

A Boston terrier owner, a breeder, a dog walker or a proud native of Boston will all recognize this one. It is also a gentle way to remember a dog who has passed, and a fun present for a Boston University or Red Sox fan who loves dogs. Set it on a desk, a bookshelf or a mudroom shelf beside the leash hooks.
