Kutani Ware Mokubei sake flasks are traditional designs with a rich and charming appearance, featuring Chinese-style figures (red painted fine details) primarily in red, derived from the style of the Edo period master craftsman Aoki Mokubei. Current Kutani Ware (Mokubei) depicts Chinese figures (sages and children), clouds, trees, and leaves in a harmonious manner using five colors (green, yellow, purple, indigo) on a red base. ???

They would also look lovely as flower vases, single-stem vases, or as interior decorations for your room, not just as sake flasks (vessels). ???

There are no major damages such as chips, cracks, or breaks. While subjective, I believe they are in good condition for their age, but perceptions vary. Please judge based on the description and images.

?? Product Condition ??
There are some irregularities in the gold trim around the mouth. There are also fine cracks (kannyu).
As they were displayed, there are slight storage scuffs, small scratches, and minor dirt on the bottom where they rested. ?Other?
Please assume there may be minor scratches, scuffs, and dirt on the entire sake flask due to storage, even if not immediately visible.

Please be aware of initial manufacturing imperfections such as paint loss, color skipping, uneven coloring, dullness, pinholes, black spots, firing stains, rough texture, and small bumps or dents from the manufacturing process.

Please forgive any minor oversights in the description or inspection beyond what is stated, as this is a manual inspection.

The color of the images may differ from the actual product due to the nature of your monitor, shooting environment, and lighting conditions.
