Handpainted Green and Gold Porcelain Ashtray with Chinoiserie Smoking Motif

About the Item

This charming ashtray features a beautifully painted chinoiserie scene set within a striking green octagonal frame adorned with four golden folded corners. The scene depicts a man dressed in a traditional Chinese robe and hat, elegantly smoking a long pipe while standing on grass beside a graceful willow tree. The craftsmanship is remarkable, with all details meticulously hand-painted, and the artwork is signed "TD." The ashtray's green border boasts a lovely hue, enriched with yellow undertones. While the designer and maker of this piece remain unidentified, the style, color palette, and hand-painted motif closely resemble the esteemed ashtrays produced by Hermès in Limoges, suggesting a high-quality craftsmanship.
