Rosenthal Home Flower Farm Covered Box

The Rosenthal Home Flower Farm Covered Box is the kind of small object that makes a surface look finished. The lid gives it a purpose — jewelry, cufflinks, a spare key, the things that otherwise sit loose on a dresser — and the Flower Farm motif ties it to the rest of the collection.

Rosenthal has been making fine porcelain in Selb, Bavaria since 1879, and the weight and glaze here are the giveaway. Good on a nightstand, a vanity, or a shelf that needs one more thing.

Porcelain.
