In 1904, one plate launched Noritake’s dream
Noritake’s history began with this plate about one century ago. In keeping with the founder’s vision, Noritake has continued to produce tableware designed to enrich our lives. Today, the Noritake brand is loved and respected all over the world for its artistic beauty and technological process. Noritake’s manufacturing philosophy has remained unchanged throughout the passing of the years. From the past to the future, Noritake has and will continue to offer the dream of a rich life by contributing a novel perspective on the art of living.
