Description
Departure day. The suitcase is zipped, the taxi is honking, and Élise is trying very hard not to cry as she hugs her mother in the doorway. At the last moment, she presses a little sprig of forget-me-nots from the garden into her mother’s handbag. Weeks later, on the other side of the world, her phone buzzes with a photo: the pressed flowers, carefully tucked into the lining.
This box holds that tender message in porcelain form. Shaped like a classic handbag, it is scattered with blue forget-me-nots and fresh green leaves. Set it on a dressing table, a bedside shelf or in a curio cabinet among other floral treasures. It is a meaningful present for a mother when a child moves away, for a best friend across the ocean, or as a quiet memorial. Its soft blue blooms pair beautifully with pastel bedrooms and shabby-chic décor alike. Tuck a photograph inside, folded once, and the bag becomes a tiny traveling album of a person you will always carry with you.
