The porcelain carries its decoration with the quiet confidence of traditional craft. The silver-plated detailing frames it like something worth protecting, which is exactly what it was made to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt was made to hold small things of value. It still does that well. A ring, a keepsake, something you haven't decided what to do with yet. The wear and patina it carries now are evidence of a long life, not a diminished one — the record of a box that was used, kept, and passed along because someone thought it worth keeping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e+ WHY WE CHOSE IT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the combination of porcelain and silver-plate at this level of craft is increasingly hard to find. Because it's functional and beautiful in equal measure.
