Pink and red roses with tiny violet companions sit alongside leaves shifting from green to blue to golden yellow — pattern N1427 features an unusually rich floral palette, with detailed, dimensional roses and gold tracing the rim, handles, foot, and lid with careful precision. The wide, low silhouette with twin handles gives it a presence larger than its 2.75" height suggests.
Beautiful on a formal breakfast table or in a china display.
Registered between 1933 and approximately 1946, the RC mark places this firmly in the pre-war window of Noritake's export production — a period collectors specifically seek out.
Other pieces in this pattern, including complete dinnerware sets, are available in the shop.
