Antique Nippon, Mayonnaise Bowl, Footed Bowl with Underplate, Morimura Bros., Hand Painted, Floral Pattern, Sauce Bowl, Rice Bowl

A gorgeous antique footed mayonnaise bowl with matching underplate made in Nippon (Japan) by Morimura Bros. This set is handpainted with a purple floral pattern and gold trim. A perfect way to serve salsas, sauces, or other condiments. A great individual rice or soup bowl. It would look fantastic on a buffet, sideboard, or dinner table.

The name Nippon was used before the U.S. McKinley Tariff Act, which forbade the import of items that were not “plainly marked, stamped, branded, or labeled in legible English words.” Nippon is the English spelling of pronunciation of what Americans call Japan, but in 1921, the word was ruled Japanese in origin, so Nippon was no longer accepted by U.S. Customs Agents thereafter. This dates the pieces from before the McKinley Tariff act demanded that "Japan" was to be used.

Size:

Bowl
2 inches in height
4 1/4 inches in diameter

Underplate
5 1/2 inches in diameter

This set is in excellent condition. There are no chips, cracks, or crazing. There is very little rubbing of the gold trim. A truly lovely set.

It would make a great housewarming, hostess, wedding, shower, or holiday gift. A great piece for the collector.
