History
This decorative porcelain trinket dish was produced in Japan during the mid-20th century, likely during the post-WWII period when Japanese porcelain manufacturers were actively exporting to Western markets. The leaf shape and hand-painted orchid design reflect the Japanese appreciation for natural motifs and delicate craftsmanship. Small decorative dishes like this were popular as trinket holders, ring dishes, or purely decorative items in mid-century homes. Collectors of Japanese porcelain particularly value these small decorative pieces for their delicate painting, gold trim details, and distinctive shapes. The orchid motif adds botanical interest, making it appealing to both porcelain collectors and those interested in floral-themed decorative arts.
