Sugar Bowl with Lid, Noritake RC Royal Crockery, Pattern N1427, Pink & Red Roses, Gold Accents, Bone China, Japan, Antique 1926

Pink and red roses with tiny violet companions, leaves shifting from green to blue to golden yellow — this antique sugar bowl is as complex up close as it is pretty from a distance.

The RC backstamp — Royal Crockery, within a laurel leaf sprig — was registered by Noritake for the India and Southeast Asian market and used between 1926 and approximately 1946, making this a genuine pre-WWII piece. Pattern N1427 features an unusually rich floral palette: the roses are detailed and dimensional, the leaf colors range widely, and gold traces 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. Other pieces in this pattern — including complete dinnerware sets — are available in the shop.

A collector's find for Noritake enthusiasts or lovers of antique Japanese porcelain. Beautiful on a formal breakfast table or in a china display. A lasting and meaningful gift for an anniversary, a milestone, or anyone who appreciates the particular beauty of pre-war Japanese craftsmanship.
