Rochard Australian Kangaroo Limoges Box
Australia's best known animal, the kangaroo, is the subject of this Rochard Limoges box. The porcelain was formed and painted by hand in Limoges, France, bringing a bit of the outback to any shelf.
Hopping Across the Outback
Few animals say Australia quite like the kangaroo, bounding across red desert plains and grassy bush alike. It appears on the national coat of arms and is a favorite sight for every visitor down under. This piece captures that iconic marsupial in a small porcelain form that travels well to any home.

An Australian Pair
Display it with Rochard's Sydney Opera House for a matched Australian set, or among other wildlife pieces in a curio cabinet. It makes a good memento of a trip to Australia, a study abroad semester or a visit to a zoo with a kangaroo walkabout. Australians living abroad and anyone with fond memories of the outback will smile when they see it.
Many Limoges boxes are painted by hand only after the white porcelain is fired, which lets each brushstroke sit cleanly on the glaze.
