Sehei-gama Ko-Imari cup and saucer with wisteria

This 160 ml porcelain cup and saucer by Sehei-gama is painted with cascading wisteria, cherry blossom, and small yellow florets. The floral reserves alternate with vermilion panels of white scrollwork and fine gold detail.

A six-lobed rinka rim frames the cup, with cobalt scrollwork and a narrow gold line at the edge. The raised foot carries a blue seigaiha wave pattern, and the saucer repeats the same Ko-Imari composition in broader bands.
