Vintage Skeleton Poison Bottle - Grim Reaper Sake Decanter Japan - Halloween
This rare porcelain piece is styled as a grim reaper or skeleton poison bottle. Made in Japan, it appears to match other mid-century items marked Shofu and was originally a sake decanter.It is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. It is hand painted, and there are some slight variations in paint coverage (the white spot on the skeleton’s right hand is a gap in the paint, not a chip). Please view... photos; it is in remarkable condition. Additionally, it is slightly more muted than it may appear in photos. Its color is a light olive green and dusty brown with some white porcelain on the skull and bones.It is approximately 7” tall by 3” wide and about 2.5” deep. It would make the perfect vintage accent just in time for Halloween (or a funny surprise to tuck in your medicine cabinet for nosy houseguests).
