Charming toilette table ring holder, composed of two white porcelain elements delicately hand-painted with polychrome floral bouquets, highlighted with a pink border.
The lower cup, intended to hold rings and small jewels, is topped with a matching round medallion. The whole is set in an elegant gilded brass frame, crafted with sinuous lines, volutes and stamped ivy leaves. Three long loop-shaped feet give it a particularly airy silhouette.
The very fresh floral decoration combines roses, small blue, red and orange flowers with foliage painted in different shades of green. The pink border gives the whole the delicacy so characteristic of late 19th-century boudoir objects and dressing table accessories.
A delightful object, both decorative and useful, ideal on a dressing table, a console or in a collection dedicated to charming old toilet accessories.
