History: This is a small decorative trinket or jewelry box, shaped as a heart with a domed lid featuring a transfer-printed rose design. The body is white bone china with a slightly beaded rim, and the base mark indicates it is a product of Taiwan’s prolific decorative porcelain industry in the late 20th century. These items were often given as gifts or sold as souvenirs and are typical of their era—mass-produced but attractive and functional. There is minor wear visible to the gilt edge, which is common and expected for its age.
 
 
While these boxes are charming and display well, they are not considered rare or especially valuable due to their mass-produced nature, but they do appeal to collectors of vintage vanity items or as part of a romantic decorative display.
