A little lidded box shaped like a folded fan, molded with pleats radiating from the pivot and scalloped down the outer edge. The lid carries a painted spray of flowers spilling from a woven basket — pink, yellow, cornflower blue — with a bluebird mid-flight above it and thin gold rules tracing the fan ribs.
Gold Mann Japan foil label still on the base. These turned up on dressing tables everywhere in the seventies and eighties, and the ones that survived with the label intact are getting harder to find.
Rings and earrings on a nightstand, stamps on a desk, or empty on a shelf just for the shape of it.
