Description:
Most Japanese lusterware dates from the mid-1920s through the end of the 1930s. Beginning late summer in 1921, goods imported from Japan were marked “Japan” or “Made in Japan.” Goods imported from Japan had a “Nippon” (the Japanese name for Japan) mark between 1891, when the McKinley Tariff Act was passed, and the first part of 1921. “Sometimes, pieces are not backstamped. (LIKE THIS SAUCER) The profit margin on ceramics was slim, and a factory could save a little labor cost by not marking every piece in a set.” As you discovered in going through you collection, pieces also were marked with Japanese characters. Unfortunately, no reference source provides a translation for them. Normally one encounters Japanese lusterware in tea sets, luncheon sets, and, occasionally, dinnerware. However, many kitchen and other household products, e.g., ashtrays, creamer and sugar sets, pitchers, reamers, salt and pepper and condiment sets, vases, wall pockets, etc., can be found in a lusterware finish, and mostly not marked. You can start your collection, or use this Saucer for you favorite tea cup. Measures 6"diameter Excellent condition
