Rochard Jack Russell Terrier Dog Limoges Box

Full of terrier spirit, a Jack Russell is captured in this lively porcelain portrait. Rochard made it as a Limoges box and painted the little dog by hand in Limoges, France.

Small Dog, Big Personality

Bred in England for fox hunting, Jack Russell Terriers are famous for boundless energy, sharp wits and fearless curiosity. Anyone who has lived with one knows they rarely sit still for long, which makes a porcelain version that stays put a bit of a joke. Each coat and face is painted by hand, so no two dogs come out quite the same.

Fired in the Limousin

Porcelain has been made around Limoges since the late 1700s, when kaolin, the fine white clay it needs, was found near Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche in 1768. That long tradition gives this terrier its bright white base. Set him on a desk, a mudroom shelf, or a curio cabinet with other breeds. He makes a fun present for a proud terrier owner, an agility competitor, a veterinarian, or someone remembering a beloved Jack who kept the whole household busy.
