    Description

    This is a beautiful vintage WWII era military sake cup. Believe this to be porcelain. Looks to be of exceptional quality. Cup has a design in its center of a field gun / piece of field artillery. In gold leaf, above is a large star along with writing characters. There are also a couple of characters underneath the gun depiction. Along the top rim (also rimmed in gold leaf) is a depiction of a crane. Cup is quite delicate; almost see through at some points with a blue tint with the gold at the top rim area. Bottom of cup has a raised design of a star that sits on what looks like a lotus leaf that is very slightly raised. Star tips have a bit of roughness where they have been in contact with shelf. This piece is in excellent condition; no chips, cracks, or stains. Gold leaf has some minor finish wear but this is a beautiful military sake cup. Clean and odor-free.  From the estate of a Vietnam veteran who had a quality collection of militaria.
