This small, rectangular porcelain box from Belgium, dating to the 1950s, stands out with its rich cobalt blue as the base color, amplified by a glossy glaze. Measuring 9 x 9 x 5.5 cm, it features a slightly domed lid with rounded edges and a subtle black outline along the rim, lending refinement to its silhouette. The surface is decorated with hand-painted floral motifs in an oriental style: white flowers with red and green centers outlined in gold, and floral branches rendered in gold and brown, creating a dynamic, organic pattern. The box is signed, confirming its authenticity as European mid-century craftsmanship with a nod to Asian-inspired ornamentation. The porcelain is smooth to the touch; visible scratches and gentle signs of use testify to its vintage character. The piece remains in very good condition, with original patina and no visible restoration. The decoration of this box echoes an era when European design eagerly embraced the allure of the Far East, balancing utility with ornament. Deep cobalt and gold branches evoke the spirit of the 1950s, a time when everyday objects became small works of art and hand-painted details gave them a singular identity. This box seems to carry silent stories from past parlors—nestled between a cup of tea and an evening conversation, it quietly draws attention and preserves the moment. It can be displayed on a console table in the living room, where its decorative qualities complement wood or stone surfaces. It also serves well on a tabletop as an elegant container for jewelry, small accessories, or keepsakes. Interiors styled in mid-century modern, classic, or eclectic collector's fashion will provide an apt setting for this porcelain, especially
