This is a Kutani traditional painting technique called "hanazume" (flower-patterned sake cup) made by "Kin-en" Kiln. It is painted with a delicate touch and gorgeous flowers.

It is probably from the Showa period.

It is a very picturesque Tokkuri (Sake bottle), not only when used as a Tokkuri, but also when used as a flower vase.

We also have matching sake cups, so we recommend you to combine them as a gorgeous set of sake cups.
