Memory Ware Pedestal.
Covered with a particularly rich variety of shards from very fine China, as well as doll heads, baby figurines, patterned glass, a China frog and rooster's head, a lady's watch, and a doll's cup and pitcher. The spaces between the shards are painted in an old, dark, oxidized gold. In the center top is a heavy hammered copper ashtray that is not attached. It lifts off to reveal a round open space. It was made in the early 1900's. Some of the decoration appears to be much older.
Good condition. Small cracks and separation throughout, but in stable condition.
