Japanese Hand Painted Porcelain Chocolate Pot with Floral Spray and Gilded Accents - A tall, slender hand-painted porcelain chocolate pot featuring a tapering cylindrical body, a high-arched handle, a long curved spout, and a domed lid with a gold-toned finial. The vessel is decorated with a matte, shaded tan-to-cream ground. The front displays a large floral spray consisting of a vibrant orange poppy-style flower, a central blue rose, and green foliage. The reverse side features a simpler motif of three brown leaves. The handle and the rim of the lid are finished with gold-toned luster. The underside of the base features a mark printed in red ink reading HAND PAINTED MADE IN JAPAN in three lines. Although web results suggest a similarity to Noritake wares, the mark does not contain a specific maker name to confirm such an attribution.
