Monarch Empress Round Lidded Catchall Box

A round lidded catchall, 5.5 inches across and three tall, in light blue chinoiserie porcelain. The lid is what makes it useful: on a dresser or an entry table it turns loose change, collar stays and receipts into something contained rather than spreading across the surface. Three inches deep is enough for a watch as well. The soft blue palette is lighter than traditional cobalt, so it sits in a room that has not committed to blue. Handcrafted, so each piece varies slightly. From the Monarch collection.
