Plate reverse
-
Looks like this Jar was made by the same maker (“Arita ware”) that made “Plate from Nagasaki” (issued November 25, 1981). Let’s take a look at plate reverse.

Recently found this one on ebay. Very nice example of prize ceramic issued by wounded soldier association in 80s. A jar with the image of wound badge and recipient wound “history”. Mr Yamamoto Kisaburo was awarded with this jar on November 1, 1983. He was wounded November 10, 1937 in a battle in China Suzhou while serving in the first regiment of the Kurume tank, Yoneda unit.

These are "gazyry" ["газыри"] (from adygei "хьазыр" - "готовый" - "ready"). Originally these were the holders for ready-to-use powder + bullets charges covered in paper. Later (when bullet was introduced) these became decorative element. Regards, Nick -

Manchukuo Army Pilot Badge
-
Obviously "slotted propeller” badges were used as prototypes for rare Manchukuo Army Pilot Badge – the only difference between them is the superimposed star. Most likely both badges (japanese and manchukuo) were manufactured by the same japanese workshops
