This is a very old piece of hand decorated porcelain. The lid is attached with a brass clasp allowing for movement. The lid also has 3 areas which have lots of little holes outlined in gold, and dotted all around the urn are tiny little blue porcelain flowers with leaves and branches in a raised design. There are some flowers which are damaged, and there are a couple which are missing. Still a beautiful piece of vintage porcelain. The rose on top of the lid needs some paint re-touching as it also has a broken petal. Scattered around the urn are little painted insects. Damage to rim which is not noticeable when the lid is down. The markings underneath I am not familiar with however it could be any European country. This item has been in a family for over 80 years, it has survived a house fire so some of the base flowers are rather damaged from the soot. Measures 20cm in height. Postage R35
