This is a stunning Japanese army sake cup, decorated beautifully with a soldier wearing the Meiji era uniform riding a horse, with his rifle on the back and the sword hanging on the side. The words on the cup are "3rd division 3rd Transport Battalion" "Term Fulfillment Commemoration". It is quite rare to find soldiers done in such detail on cups.

Condition: There are two small chips at 7 and 11 o'clock, and a short hairline at 1 o'clock. Please see photos for details.
