Looking for information on the Noritake China set I have inherited. Any help is appreciated. I do not see a china name but rather only that it was made in occupied Japan.
Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Well you can tell the age by the fact that it was made in occupied Japan, so 1945- early 1950’s I believe. If you’re looking for a pattern name, that is a mighty task as many, including several pattern which I own have been lost to time. If you’re interested in acquiring more pieces, and live in the USA, you can send photos to replacements.com, and they may have more pieces. I did a quick scroll through their photos, but did not find your pattern name. Anything with an N followed by numbers is replacements own inventory number, just a way for them to track unknown patterns for their inventory.
Hi The name of that pattern is Chevonia - I have a complete 8 place setting - 80 pieces - just bought the teapot to go with it -
If it is labeled Rose China from Occupied Japan, it was made when Noritake changed the name of their Japanese production to " ROse China " as they didn't want the Noritake name used during a time when they didn't think they could get good materials for the products during the occupation that took polace after world war 2
Enjoy !!
