Handpainted porcelain match box keeper w/ attached ashtray. Floral sprays adorn the matchbox tower & tray edges. Holds a small box of wood matches in center well with open sides allowing the match to be struck. Attached tray serves as a repository for burnt matches and cigarette ash. Signed by the artist en verso, "Seymour Gardner" (?). No maker's marks but believed to be from the 1920s.. Tiny chip and minor vertical crack in opening; neither detracts from appearance or function.
