Vintage porcelain ashtray (or trinket dish) in Fragonard-style art, with elegant gold handles and footed base. Likely 1920s–1940s. A central hand-painted romantic scene inspired by 18th-century French Rococo art, rich gold gilt detailing along the rim and interior border, decorative embossed gold-tone side handles, four petite scrolled feet. Marked “Japan” on the base.
While originally designed as an ashtray, it also works beautifully today as a trinket dish, vanity tray, ring holder, or small decorative accent.
Approximately 5.5 inches L x 3.25 inches W x 1.5 inches H
Condition: Very good used vintage condition; light age-appropriate wear to gilt and minor surface wear consistent with age.
