Rochard Orchid Flower Hand-Painted Limoges Box

Few flowers carry as much quiet drama as the orchid, with its graceful stems and unusual blooms. Rochard captures that beauty in a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box made in Limoges, France.

A Bloom From the Hothouse

Orchids make up one of the largest flower families on earth, with tens of thousands of species growing from rainforest canopies to mountain meadows. Victorian collectors went to great lengths to bring them home, a craze known as orchidelirium. Today the orchid is a favorite houseplant and a symbol of refinement and love.

Windowsill Garden Spot
