Maigida africanartsThere are only a few occasions when most people think about fine china and place settings. One of those is when a loved one passes away and people debate who is going to get Grandma’s china, and the other is when a bride to be picks out her pattern for gift registry. Beyond that china and its distinct patterns are usually forgotten about until the holidays or special occasions. While there are a wide variety of different styled patterns made by several manufacturers,many people are biased toward the look of Noritake patterns.
For just over a hundred years, this Japanese company has been making china that has graced the tables of the famous and not so famous.
The Noritake company first began its export of beautiful tableware in 1904 after Japan and the United States opened trade. Before long Noritake patterns were popular in the U.S. and the rest of the world. The tradition continues on to the present day and thanks to the Internet it is possible to even find pieces of Noritake patterns that have been discontinued.
The people at Noritake didn’t limit themselves to one type of china. There are Noritake patterns
available in bone, white, and porcelain china. Their formal designs are exquisite and come in such a large variety of patterns to accent any formal dining table. One Noritake pattern that receives high praise is Sheer Ivory.This pattern adds a soft elegance to a special occasion. Another popular pattern in their bone china line is Royal Piermont White. This Noritake pattern is purely white and displays the owner’s good taste with its simple and refined appearance.
Fortunately the graceful Noritake patterns aren’t necessarily just for special occasions.The company also produces a line of sturdy, beautiful everyday tableware. One of the more sought after products is Keltcraft earthenware.
This pattern is actually produced in Ireland and is sturdy enough to stand up to daily use by children and lovely enough to look special for a candlelit dinner.Another example of a casual Noritake pattern is Versatone China. Once again, this pattern is perfectly suitable for everyday use and looks good doing it. The nice thing about Noritake casual dinnerware is that all of it is made to go from
the freezer to the oven or microwave.
To accent their diverse dinnerware patterns, Noritake is also home to finely made crystal stemware.The crystal Noritake patterns are each mouth blown and intricately decorated by hand for perfect results each time. The crystal stemware also has 25% lead crystal content. While the stemware is beautiful on its own, it has been designed to compliment the dinnerware Noritake patterns.>
For a century now Noritake patterns have been the first choice of brides and china collectors. The extensive choices and well made products have made this Japanese company one of the top picks for people with discriminating tastes.From Noritake’s formal to casual dinnerware to its extraordinary crystal, each piece is painstakingly crafted for beauty and durability.
