Russo Japanese Military Kiri Flags Infantry Army Sake CupThis is an antique Japanese military sake cup, decorated with a kiri and a pair of flags and a blue rim, and the words "18th Infantry Regiment" "The Year of Russia Conquest Commemoration". The soldier's name Omura is on the back. It's pretty unusual to see a blue kiri Condition: Excellent some fading of the name on the back. Size: 3. 25" across

with the word "Gift" on top

decorated with a picture of a number of soldiers marching into a Chinese city gate with a Japanese flag hanging on a bayonet on the last soldier

decorated with a star in the center and on the exterior are the words "Infantry Lieutenant Okada Saiji"

which suggests that this is probably a dish from the 30s

One is the flag with rays

The saucers had these decorations for the pole as well

a scroll about healing soldiers

one of which says "Banzai"

and you know this because the event commemorated is the special naval exercise fleet review

Condition: There's some surface wear/aging

There's a star on the map of Hokkaido
