Please Note
I am an antique and vintage seller. All vintage and antique items have flaws. That is the nature and charm of aged and well-loved decor. If you are looking for pristine new decor, please do not purchase vintage or antique items from my shop. Everything I carry will show signs of age, use, and history. Please look closely at all photographs and read the description carefully before purchasing.
This beautiful vintage porcelain pique-fleurs flower frog is a rare and refined example of a miniature floral arranger, likely dating to the 1930s–1940s and inspired by European decorative design of the interwar period.
Its elongated, low-profile form is particularly unusual—combining a shallow reservoir base with a fitted pierced top designed to hold individual stems in place. This thoughtful construction allows for delicate, intentional arrangements using even the smallest wildflowers.
The soft green wash and hand-painted ivy motif, accented with subtle gold detailing, give the piece a timeless, understated elegance that fits seamlessly into cottage, farmhouse, and European-inspired interiors.
I have not found another example in this exact form and scale currently available, making this a truly distinctive piece for collectors and decorators alike.

Shipping Note
I take great care in packaging to ensure your item arrives safely. I do not profit from shipping and gladly combine shipping on multiple purchases.Antique and vintage item condition
Please remember that vintage and antique items have lived full lives before reaching your home. Signs of age such as light scratches, surface wear, patina, minor discoloration, tiny flea bites, manufacturing irregularities, age-related fading, crazing, tarnish, or other imperfections are common and should be expected with previously owned pieces. I do my absolute best to carefully inspect, photograph, and describe each item honestly and thoroughly; however, due to the nature of vintage and antique goods, there may occasionally be minor signs of wear, imperfections, repairs, or age-related characteristics that are overlooked or not immediately visible during inspection. These characteristics are considered part of the charm, authenticity, and history of vintage and antique items and are not typically considered defects. Please review all photos carefully and feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase, as all sales are based on the understanding that these pieces are pre-owned and will naturally show evidence of age and use over time. I do not refund based on "this wasn't what I expected". My pictures are very clear and obvious. The only thing you might not be able to discern without an in-person inspection might be color as that can be different from one monitor to another. However, I explain the colors very clearly and that should never be cause for a return.
Aged Metals
Aged metals—including sterling silver, silver plate, brass, and copper—naturally develop character over time. Silver will tarnish (a normal oxidation process), while brass and copper may darken, dull, or develop patina and verdigris. I do not polish these finishes, as many collectors value the depth, warmth, and authenticity they bring. You may also see light wear, including areas where silver plate has thinned to reveal underlying metal, along with age spots, surface variations, or minor discoloration. These are not defects, but expected signs of age that reflect the history and unique character of each piece. I do not accept returns because something was not polished or has rust or other logical conditions for aged pieces. My pictures are very clear.
