A stunning example of Japanese Kutani porcelain artistry, this demitasse cup and saucer showcases the rich decorative tradition that made Kutani ware prized by collectors worldwide.
The cup features a deep gold ground lavishly painted with polychrome chrysanthemums in pink, rust, and blue, accented by bamboo, delicate flowering branches, and a perched bird rendered in fine detail. A bold red and gold geometric border frames the top and base of the cup, adding graphic contrast to the lush botanical scene. The saucer continues the pattern seamlessly, with matching florals spilling across a cream ground with gold gilding.
The white porcelain interior is clean and bright — ready to display or use for a special occasion.
A beautiful piece for the Japanese ceramics collector, Asian art enthusiast, or anyone who appreciates fine gilded porcelain.
