This is a fantastic & unusual mug or stein by Imperial Ware Japan in the shape of a woman in a green dress leaning against a barrel. The base is marked with the piece’s title: Contemplation. This piece has a great art nouveau/mid century feel, & would be great as part of a display or for regular drink use. Interestingly, this piece appears to have been a part of a collection of steins that depict the lady in various states of undress. These seem to be very rare. Measures 5x5x3 inches & holds 12oz of liquid. There is some crazing (see photos) & a very small & old chip at the base of the woman’s dress. Otherwise in great condition & fantastic quality.
