Rare Chikaramachi Lusterware
Cup and Saucer Set
A Unique Antique Collectible -- From the 1920's



My grandmother was a collector of Pre WWII Japanese Lusterware China and this set was always one that captured my imagination. A creamy peach band of luster circles the cup and saucer. The hand painted scene evokes a chilly, country fall sunrise.  I can imagine just waiting for a warm cup of tea to ward off the cold. Soft hues of the sunrise in pink and blue trail around in a band to the back of the cup echoing a horizon about to give birth to a new day.  The black handle adds a touch of drama and sets off the scene without distraction.

The Lusterware interior softly gleams with iridescent hues and the porcelain itself is delicate.   It has a rustic/rough sort of finish despite the delicacy of the Lusterware, so it makes a nice contrast. 

Not dishwasher or microwave safe.  Hand washing in delicate detergent only.

This set includes six cups and saucers in very good condition, with no chips or cracks. 

The Chikaramachi back mark on these pieces was registered by Noritake in 1928 and was manfactured only until 1942.  It is now thought to have been reserved for their apprentice pottery decorators (similar to the relationship between the Spanish potteries Lladro and Nao).  The Noritake factory was destroyed by a bomb in 1945, and the records for Chikaramachi pottery were lost. The name Chikaramachi was taken from the street running alongside the main Noritake factory in Nagoya.
