Rochard Church Porcelain Limoges Box

A little church, walls, windows and door all painted by hand, forms this Rochard box. It is porcelain from Limoges, France, and it carries the warmth of a village chapel on a Sunday morning.

Where the Bells Ring

For many families, the local church holds memories of weddings, christenings and holidays shared across generations. Rochard captures that place in a small porcelain building, so it can sit on a shelf at home. Each church is painted individually, which means the details differ slightly from one to the next.

Vows and Celebrations

• A Rochard religious and wedding design
• A meaningful present for a wedding, a baptism or a confirmation
• Also suits a pastor's anniversary, an ordination or a church dedication

The Village on Your Shelf

Church boxes fit naturally into a village grouping with houses, shops and a schoolhouse, or among faith pieces beside angels and crosses. Couples sometimes choose this one to recall the church where they married, and keep their wedding rings inside on anniversaries.

It also makes a thoughtful thank-you for a wedding officiant or the volunteers who arranged the flowers. Set it on a mantel, a dresser or a bookcase, where it quietly holds a lifetime of memories.
