Rochard Matterhorn Mountain with Swiss Horn Limoges Box
The Matterhorn rises in its famous pyramid peak, and a Swiss horn sounds a greeting from the meadows below. Rochard brings the Alps home in this porcelain Limoges box, hand-painted in Limoges, France.
Echoes Across the Valley
The long alphorn was once used by herders to call cattle down from high pastures, and its deep notes still carry across Swiss valleys at festivals today. Paired with the Matterhorn above Zermatt, it makes a picture of Switzerland anyone would recognize.

Souvenir From the Summit
It makes a fine memento after a ski week in Zermatt, a ride on the Glacier Express, or a hiking trip through the Swiss Alps. Give it to a mountaineer, a ski instructor, a friend with Swiss roots, or a couple who honeymooned among the peaks. Set it on a chalet style mantel, a study shelf beside trail maps, or a desk where the mountains stay close until the next trip.
