Sold by Rams Head Antiques

Description

This is a beautifully hand painted pair of early 20th Century Japanese Kutani porcelain Sake bottles and two Sake cups dating from around 1900. The bottles depict a scholar in an interior surrounded by scrolls with a ground of diaper flowering prunus. There is a very faint hairline to the neck of one bottle and base of the other, otherwise these are in super order with delightful crisp paintwork and a lovely gilding and lustre to the Sake cups. The bottles measure 15.5cms high and have three character marks to the bases in iron red. The set is in a fitted sandalwood box which measures 25 cms by 19 cms by 11 cms deep.
