This is the first book dedicated to ceramics exported to Europe by
the venerable Noritake firm, established in Tokyo in 1876. Over 580
vibrant color photographs display the porcelain tablewares, tea,
chocolate, and coffee sets, dressing table sets, and vases produced
from 1891 to 1939. Decorative motifs displayed include nineteeenth
century formal, Arts & Crafts, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco
designs. The text provides a company history, backstamp
explanations, a glossary, and a comprehensive guide to collecting.
Values are included in the captions in both U.S. dollars and
English pounds.
