A continental porcelain wall-mounted pocket or figurine, likely dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. The central feature is a large tulip flower in orange and cream tones with gilded highlights to the petal edges, serving as the vessel. Reclining alongside the flower is a porcelain cherub or putto, partially draped in a sash embellished with hand-painted floral motifs. The piece is further decorated with applied three-dimensional floral sprays, including a pink rose, a blue forget-me-not, and a small purple flower, set against green leaves. A smaller purple tulip bud with gilded accents is positioned at the base. The entire item is finished in a high-gloss glaze with hand-painted details. There are no visible maker marks or signatures on the front or sides of the piece.
Length: Approximately 21 cm.
