Vintage Japanese porcelain Furisode Sake bottle / flask

A vintage Japanese porcelain sake bottle or decorative flask featuring a finely detailed image of a young woman wearing a traditional furisode kimono. The artwork is rendered in a classic Japanese style with delicate facial features and rich orange-red colouring against a soft ivory ground. The base carries Japanese character marks, while the neck retains its original paper covering and decorative cord tie, suggesting the bottle was originally sold as a gift or souvenir item.
