Vintage Japanese Imari Style Porcelain Tumbler Cup Iwai Pottery Red Blue Gold Floral

Description

Beautiful vintage Japanese porcelain tumbler decorated in a traditional Imari-style pattern featuring vibrant red flowers, deep cobalt blue leaves, and rich gold gilt accents. The base bears the mark of Iwai Pottery (Iwai Tō), a Japanese ceramics producer known for creating high-quality decorative porcelain for export markets during the mid-to-late 20th century. The elegant flared shape and striking colour combination make this piece ideal as a small drinking cup, tea cup, display piece, desk accessory, or addition to an Imari or Japanese porcelain collection. The intricate floral decoration and hand-finished gilding reflect the timeless appeal of traditional Japanese ceramics while remaining highly decorative in modern interiors. Approx Dimensions: * Height: ~ 9.5cm * Opening Diameter: ~ 7.3cm * Base Diameter: ~ 5.5cm In very good vintage condition. No chips, cracks, crazing, or repairs observed. The gilding remains bright and attractive with only minimal signs of age-related wear consistent with careful use and display.
