This is a lovely little millefiore pitcher from FTG Japan that shows great technique.
The millefiore tokens have been so well stacked,a very fine white inner case, and the whole has been clear cased, shaped, and a handle added.
I would date this no later than 1970 because of the base sticker style.
FTG changed their branding to Multi Glass very early in the 1970s.
Height: 23cm
