This is an antique Japanese military sake cup set, decorated with a badge of the Order of Rising Sun set within a cherry blossom on each of the cups, and the words on the back of the cups are "Fukui Prefecture Shobukai". The cup comes with an original wooden box, with a lot of details written under the lid of the box. The text goes as follows (from right to left):
