Rochard Limoges Box
Rochard Studio Collection Floral with Mother and Child Portrait Limoges Box
Item 4073
Please Contact Us for availability on this Limoges box.

An exquisite box from the exclusive Rochard Studio Collection. Outside, it is richly painted in earth tones of browns, greens, reds, and white, and is trimmed in black and gold. A flower and leaves are painted inside the bottom. But what puts this box in a special category is the lovely depiction of mother and child inside the top of the box. A strictly limited edition of 250 pieces. For the discriminating, advanced collector.

Introduced in 1994, the Rochard Studio Collection represents a quality in workmanship above and beyond Rochard's already high standards of painting and design. Using fine brush strokes and unusual painterly techniques, which can make the berries on a Christmas box appear three-dimensional, these boxes feature more colors: 15 to 20 rather than the usual 6 to 12, and liberal use of 24 carat gold, which has to be painted and fired separately. Such painstaking details demand more time, are produced on a smaller scale and, as a result, are costlier than other Limoges boxes. Some of the Rochard Studio Collection comes specially packaged in an elaborate hinged gift box, and all features an elegant scroll detailing the special workmanship involved. As a true limited edition, the RS Collection features 2 to 3 new designs every season (50 to 250 pieces each), which are then retired. What distinguishes the RS Collection from other Rochard boxes is its emphasis on painting rather than form. Most of the shapes are traditional, but every now and then an unusual form will come along! Approximate size is 3½ x 2½ x 2 inches.
