Description

A vintage Japanese Sake Tokkuri is a type of sake bottle that is traditionally used to serve and store sake, a Japanese alcoholic beverage. Sake Tokkuri are typically made of ceramic or porcelain and are often decorated with intricate designs or patterns.

A Sake Tokkuri from the late 1900s with a flower painted in blue by hand is a decorative piece that features a delicate blue flower motif, applied by hand by a skilled artisan. The blue color is likely achieved using a traditional Japanese pigment called "sometsuke," which is made by grinding cobalt oxide into a fine powder.

These hand-painted Sake Tokkuri are highly prized for their artistic beauty and craftsmanship, and their value may depend on factors such as the quality of the artwork, the rarity of the piece, and the condition of the bottle. The blue flower motif is a popular theme in Japanese ceramics and is often associated with the natural beauty of Japan.
