Cobalt Blue Fleur-de-lis Decorative Trinket Box

This is a circular, lidded decorative box, likely constructed of hand-painted ceramic or porcelain with a glossy glaze. The piece features a deep cobalt blue ground, richly accented with metallic gold-toned motifs. The lid is adorned with repeated fleur-de-lis symbols arranged in a radial pattern, framed by a double-row border of scalloped or crest-like designs and rope-textured bands. The base of the box mimics this decorative scheme with additional fleur-de-lis accents around its rounded perimeter. In terms of condition, the item shows visible scuffing and minor surface losses to the gold paint along the raised edges of the lid, indicating frequent handling. Small white spots or nicks are visible on the blue surface, suggesting minor chips in the glaze or paint. The construction appears sturdy, though the hand-painted nature of the gold detailing shows some inconsistencies in line thickness, adding a folk-art or artisanal quality to the piece. Based on the style and weathering, it likely dates to the late 20th century, echoing French Provincial design elements. There are no maker's marks visible in this orientation, but the interior may hold further clues to its manufacture.
