Ceramic Fruit-Decorated Candle Holder

This appears to be a small, individual ceramic candle holder, likely designed for a taper or small votive candle, due to the central well. The item is characterized by its white glazed ceramic body, which serves as a base. It features a decorative, scalloped edge around the perimeter of the base, adding a delicate touch to its design. The most prominent feature is the applied and painted fruit motif adorning the rim of the base. These fruits include clusters of grapes in shades of purple and green, and individual fruits resembling peaches or small apples in pink and yellow hues, all interspersed with green leaves. The fruits are rendered in a three-dimensional, relief style, suggesting hand-applied detailing. The central candle well is also white, with a fluted or petal-like rim, echoing the scalloped border of the base. The piece exhibits a glossy finish indicative of a ceramic glaze. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures from the provided image. The style suggests a decorative item from the latter half of the 20th century, possibly 1970s-1990s, often associated with country, cottage, or traditional decor. Condition appears to be good with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear, though a closer inspection would be needed to confirm this. The craftsmanship appears to be of a mass-produced standard, with some hand-painting evident in the fruit details.
