Vintage Decorative Covered Compote or Candy Dish

Vintage Decorative Covered Compote or Candy Dish featuring blue glass and an ornate metal overlay with floral designs. The mark "MADE IN OCCUPIED JAPAN" on the bottom indicates that it was produced in Japan during the Allied occupation period following World War II, specifically between 1947 and 1952. Items from this era were predominantly made for export and are now collectible due to their historical context.​​
