Tall Burgundy Rochard Limoges Box, Painted Flowers and Bottle

Tall and burgundy, with flowers painted across its sides, this Rochard box holds a small perfume bottle inside. It is hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France, and its deep color gives it a formal air.

Evening Gown Colors

Burgundy has a richness that pastels can't match, and here it frames the painted flowers like velvet behind a brooch. The tall shape adds height to a vanity, and the bottle inside turns the box into a little perfume set. Every flower is brushed by hand, so the arrangement shifts slightly from one piece to another.

Florals for the Formal Vanity

• A Rochard perfume design
• Suits a floral, burgundy or perfume collection
• Stands well on a vanity, a dresser or a bathroom shelf

Gifts With a Little Drama

This box fits the friend who wears red lipstick and loves a night at the opera. It also makes a fine anniversary present, a Valentine's Day surprise or a birthday gift for someone born in the colder months. Place it near a mirror or a crystal perfume tray, where the burgundy can glow under lamplight.

Pair it with the burgundy eggs for a coordinated shelf, or let it stand alone as the one dark note among lighter porcelain.
