Rochard Sailboat and Life Saver Porcelain Limoges Box

A sailboat sets out on a breezy day with a life saver ring close at hand, ready for whatever the water brings. Rochard hand-paints this porcelain Limoges box in Limoges, France, a nautical piece for anyone who feels most at home on the water.

Fair Winds and Following Seas

Sailors know that a good boat and a life ring go together, and this design pairs them neatly in porcelain. Rochard's painters finish each piece by hand, so the sails, hull and life saver carry slight differences from one box to the next.

Harbor-Side Display

Set it on a bookshelf with tide charts and sailing trophies, on a beach house mantel, or on a desk in a navy-and-white study. It is a fitting present for a yacht club member, a new boat owner, a retiring Coast Guard officer or a friend who just finished sailing lessons. Summer birthdays and Father's Day are natural moments as well.
