Noritake is a Japanese ceramics manufacturer founded in 1904, known for its high-quality tableware and industrial ceramic products. It initially found success in the American market and is now recognized worldwide. From the beginning, Noritake has been committed to the color "white" in ceramics, and in 1914, it completed Japan's first dinner set made from "white hard porcelain." In 1932, Noritake also succeeded in developing Japan's first "bone china," and products made from these materials have become the company's main offerings. Even today, Noritake continues to receive high praise for its fusion of tradition and innovation in product making.
This item is a cup and saucer from Noritake's high-end "Studio Collection" series, as indicated by the mark. The beautiful white base adorned with gold accents in circular and diamond patterns gives this piece a luxurious yet playful and charming appearance.
