Japan // Naval Forces / Sake Decanter
Sub-collection: JapanJapan // Naval Forces / Farewell and victory sake decanter
Between 1894-1945 sake cups were commissioned by naval troops, pilots, tank crews, supply crews, infantrymen, cavalrymen, telegraph and railroad engineers with an innumerable variation of colors and designs. They helped recall the traditions and romance of the Samurai warriors; each is a mini time capsule with the owners name and regiments inscribed and were used by soldiers and sailors to drink a victory toast, or farewell toast.
From the Louise Veninga Collection.
