Noritake Deco green luster floral bowl The Noritake Company produced and exported thousands of items in hundreds of designs to the United State between 1921-1935. They had a design office in New York City where current design sources would be used to send ideas to Japan for the Noritake decorators to use. One of the most highly collected periods of Noritake production is from the 1921 - 1935 Art Deco period.

They are renowed worldwide for their dinnerware but had a whole division focused on what was then called "fancyware", items for household consumption decorated artistically. Though very reasonable in price when first sold, they are now collected by both collectors in the Western world as well as in Japan.

This tab-handled bowl measures 9 inches from handle to handle. It stands 2 inches tall x 7 inches wide. The entire rim of the bowl is decorated in 24 K gold. The three large clusters of flowers are placed asymmetrically on the plate, a revolutionary idea at the time. Another Art Deco common feature was the stylization of nature. The flowers and leaves are NOT painted in a realistic manner but are abstract and stylized.

Noritake is well known for its luster glazes, the most common of which is tan luster. Their less common luster glazes are gold, silver, green, pearl, and yellow luster (also spelled lustre sometimes).

This bowl has both green and gold luster on it. It is in excellent condition. The green Noritake Wreath mark indicates production between 1921-1925. Later the mark was in red.

Noritake Deco tan luster speed line bowl The Noritake Company produced and exported thousands of items in hundreds of designs to the United State between 1921-1935. They had a design office in New York City where current design sources would be used to send ideas to Japan for the Noritake decorators to use.

Though very reasonable in price when first sold, they are now collected by both collectors in the Western world as well as in Japan.

This octagonal bowl measures 7 1/4 inches in diameter. It stands 2 inches tall at the handle. It has two tab handles and one can see that the mold from which it came had some in relief scrolls at the rim. The entire rim of the bowl is decorated in 24 K gold. The three large clusters of flowers are placed asymmetrically on the plate, a revolutionary idea at the time. Another Art Deco common feature was the stylization of nature. The flowers and leaves are NOT painted in a realistic manner but are abstract and stylized.

Another Art Deco common feature was the use of what are called speed lines, which featured three lines in the bands which contrast from the geometric nature of the plate shape.

Noritake is well known for its luster glazes, the most common of which is tan luster. Their less common luster glazes are gold, silver, green, pearl, and yellow luster (also spelled lustre sometimes).

This bowl has only tan luster on it but it uses scarce colors of orange and crimson in the paint. It is in very good vintage condition with some very slight wear in the center but no loss of luster. The green Noritake Wreath mark indicates production between 1921-1925. Later the mark was in red.

Red wreath mark in very good condition.

I guarantee this piece to be Noritake Art Deco.

Noritake Deco tab handled serving plate This Noritake Art Deco 7 3/4 inch wide tab handled plate features a very Art Deco sensibility. The main design is placed at the edge of the plate, creating asymmetricality and giving movement to the piece. That is aided by the tendril like white curving lines which flow across the piece. In fact, these are areas from which the typical blue luster glaze has been removed, thus negative space.

The central blossom measures almost 2 1/2 inches by itself. Black lines radiate out of the center. The blue center is surrounded by give green circles, surrounded by give yellow petals, surrounded by six white and orange petals. There are four other partial blossoms, suing orange, blue, pink, yellow, purple and green tones.

Gold rimmed, it is signed with the blue Cherry Blossom mark, which is a Noritake Company mark. As I picked this piece up reasonably, so have I priced it.

Noritake Deco big floral cheese dish P.19 This exact Noritake Deco slanted cheese dish is shown on page 205 of Spain's first Noritake book. It measures 4 3/4 inches high x 8 inches wide x 6 inches deep. It has the green cherry mark backstamp. What is really wonderful about this piece is the very Deco abstract stylized big floral decoration. Another unusual aspect to this piece is the very bright green color used for the leaves. The body is tan luster and the trim is the classic blue luster. There is a scratch mark to one of the tan sides but not deep enough to show the white underbody. There is some to be expected wear on the handle where one would pick it up. However, the blue tulip and large orange and red flower are stunning! Spain priced it at $80-$100 in his 1997 book. I bought it reasonable and am selling it that way, thus the fair price. The paint and luster are in excellent shape.

Noritake Deco floral handled cake plate This cake plates measures 9 3/4" across and carries the red wreath mark. I have sold a jam set with this exact decoration. I cannot find it listed in the four books I have on Noritake. I think it was inspired by a European pattern as the green cross-hatching of the border and yellow scroll are not typical of Noritake's Deco work. IN excellent condition with vibrant forest green, yellow, orange colors on the central floral motif, all outlined in bold black! Would look great on a wall in your country kitchen!

Noritake Deco speed line gold black tab bowl This is a great pattern in Noritake design. It is called 'speed line' by Noritake collectors.
