A striking and highly decorative original Japanese enamel sign, featuring bold white kanji against a vivid vermilion-red ground. The text reads “消火器置場,” meaning “Fire Extinguisher Location.” Once purely functional, it now evokes the atmosphere of old Japanese factories, workshops, apartment buildings, and public facilities. What makes this piece especially appealing is its powerful colour harmony: the glossy, saturated red feels energetic and commanding, while the crisp white lettering creates a dramatic contrast with unmistakable visual impact. The long, narrow shape, softly rounded corners, raised edges, and mounting holes at the top and bottom give it an authentic utilitarian character. With its subtle signs of age, this sign has the atmosphere collectors love—industrial, graphic, and distinctly Japanese. It displays beautifully on a wall and works wonderfully in interiors ranging from Showa-retro and vintage décor to modern lofts, cafés, bars, garages, and creative studios. 【Size】 Height: 30 cm Width: 19 cm Depth: 0.5 cm 【Condition】 Very good vintage condition. Minor chips, rust, and enamel loss along the edges and mounting holes, consistent with age and use. The front remains glossy, with clear lettering and strong visual appeal. 【Important Shipping Notice】 Due to the situation in the Middle East, shipping delays or returns may occur for certain countries and regions.
