The quiet romance of a Victorian dressing table — in porcelain, on four small feet.
Maker: Unmarked
Materials: Porcelain, gold rim
Dimensions: 3.5" diameter x 3" tall (including roses on lid)
Origin: Japan
Era: 1970s–1980s (estimated)
Condition: Very good — possible minor chips on two small yellow rose petals (photographed); some leaf color wear; gold rim lightly worn in areas. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
An embossed lace-like pattern covers the entire surface, with three hand-applied roses on the lid, finished with a gold rim. The muted palette reads almost Victorian.
On a vanity as a powder box, on a dressing table for rings, or simply on a shelf where something soft and pretty belongs. A sweet gift for a rose collector or a lover of vintage Japanese porcelain.
Footed, hand-applied rose porcelain boxes like this were a popular Japanese export category throughout the 1970s and 80s, offering an accessible take on the fine European Dresden-style tradition.
