An early 20th century Awata region miniature satsuma ware cup and saucer. It is produced in the ivory coloured clay from the Awata region and in the Kyoto style from the late Meiji or Taisho period. The white decoration is in relief and there are further stylised flower heads. Nice and somewhat uncommon to find a miniature in this form.
