🎎 Small Japanese Sake Cup (Guinomi) with Bamboo Motif โ Mid-Showa Era โ Japan Antique Roadshow
๐ This petite guinomi (ใใๅใฟ), a small Japanese sake cup, reflects the quiet utility and understated beauty of postwar Japanese folk craft. Likely dating from the mid-Showa era (c. 1950sโ1970s), the piece is hand-thrown stoneware with a soft gray-green glaze and a brushed motif of bamboo leavesโa classical symbol of resilience and grace in Japanese art. Lightly scuffed from honest use, it is a quiet reminder of the small rituals that shape daily life.
