Kind of an off day today. Not much of anything anywhere. This was the bright spot today though. This little cone shaped 7" wall pocket came from Salvation Army for .99 cents. It is something with it's raised moriage enamel and great pattern of wisteria vines and butterflies. No chips or cracks just some scuffs and a scratch or two. No mark anywhere either, but the few online with this cone shape were ID'd as Japanese. No year but I would say mid-century or earlier. -Mike-

I almost didn't realize that it was a wall pocket. I just thought what an amazing design for a "what's it". Remembering yours is what jogged my memory. and seeing the hole in the back for hanging. Now I have to find the other one...lol.
