This vintage Japanese Banko-style pottery bud vase features a dramatic brown and cream lava-style glaze with rich texture and an eye-catching carved miniature house motif nestled inside a cave-like recess, a hallmark of mid-century Banko-style export pottery.
The sculptural form includes small side handles and a narrow neck, making it perfect for a single stem or as a standalone art pottery accent.
Measures approximately 3 inches wide × 3 inches deep × 4.5 inches tall. Unmarked, as commonly found on Japanese Banko-style pieces from the 1950s–1970s.
No chips or cracks noted; glaze variation, texture, and carved details are part of the original design and character.
