Blue Hippo ceramic toothpick holder

Meet the cutest little helper for your kitchen or dining table—a vintage blue hippo ceramic toothpick holder! This cheerful fellow is hand-painted in a vibrant sky-blue glaze, complete with sweet little black-tipped toes and a pair of shy eyes. On one side, it features a small bunch of hand-painted flowers tucked under its arm, and around back you'll find the open cavity where your toothpicks rest neatly inside its back.

Made from ceramic and likely dating from the 1980s or 1990s, this piece feels straight out of a retro kitchen—something you might have spotted in your nana’s hutch back in the day. It’s both practical and playful, bringing instant personality to your benchtop or dinner party spread.

Not just for toothpicks! You could pop in tiny dried blooms, incense sticks, or even use it to hold your sewing pins in the craft room. Display it on open shelves or tuck it beside your spice rack to bring a little smile every time you cook.
