Traditional floral decoration and functional bird-shaped whistles distinguish this pair of vintage Japanese hand-painted porcelain whistling sake decanters, manufactured in Japan circa the 1950s. Each hexagonal sake bottle features a white glazed finish, a narrow pouring spout, and a decorative gold-tone bird. One showcases delicate bamboo branches, red foliage, and white blossoms, while the other features an elaborate cobalt blue, iron-red, and gold floral pattern with a sweeping blue ribbon-like accent. The undersides bear Japanese export markings, including a circular Japan hallmark and a Made in Japan stamp. The whistling feature on both decanters has been tested with water and works. These collectible ceramic sake flasks make a distinctive addition to vintage Japanese porcelain collections, Asian barware, sake serving sets, and mid-century décor. Good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use.
