Condition is excellent. The cups are not a pair but are very similar in both form and design. The basins are without any embellishment. The outer surfaces are decorated with modeled leaves and branches. There are two near the handle, and three on the base.
Condition is excellent.
A fine late Nineteenth Century Japanese Meiji Period bronze covered urn, circa 1890. The piece is decorated with three sceneic floral reserves and floral losenge ground. The lid has similar decoration and a finely castfinial depicting a mother monkey and her offspring. The surface decoration is achieved through an acid etched process. The condition is very good with a fine patination.
