History: This whimsical porcelain figural basket features a raised design of strawberries and foliage circling a central handle, accompanied by a charming duckling character with bright orange beak and feet, finished with a glossy glaze and hand-painted detailing. The moulded basket mimics a woven texture with floral accents, and the duck appears mid-wave, adding a playful charm. The item is unmarked but stylistically aligns with mass-produced export ware typical of Japanese or Chinese ceramic novelties from the 1980s and 1990s. Likely intended as a candy dish or decorative accent.
