Rochard Red Mix Master Mixer Limoges Box with Whisk

A cherry red Mix Master mixer with a whisk that lifts away as its own little piece brings the heart of a baker's kitchen to this Rochard box. It is hand-painted Rochard porcelain made in Limoges, France.

Whisked Away

For many families, the stand mixer was the center of every birthday cake and holiday cookie marathon. This porcelain version celebrates that kitchen workhorse in a bold red. The removable whisk is a playful touch, and since every piece is painted by hand, the red finish carries small natural variations.

Mixing Up Some History

Small porcelain boxes date back to 18th century France, when they held snuff, pills and beauty patches. Limoges makers still turn white hard-paste porcelain into tiny subjects like this, each painted after firing.

For the Family Baker

• A Rochard piece, hand-painted in Limoges, France
• Includes a whisk that comes off as a separate piece
• Pairs with rolling pin, cookbook, cake and oven pieces

It makes a fun present for a baking show fan, a pastry chef, a bride setting up her first kitchen, or the grandmother famous for her cookies. Set it on a kitchen shelf by the cookbooks or on a baker's rack.
