Rare! Mitsukoshi MITSUKOSI MEITO Meito Hard Porcelain Western and Japanese Tableware Set, Old Noritake Left: 1 large oval dish Right: 2 large plates Middle: 4 medium plates Front left: 5 rice bowls Front middle: 1 small plate Front middle: 2 soy sauce dishes This is believed to be a very old item. I searched, but I think there are almost no remaining Western and Japanese tableware sets made by MEITO with the Mitsukoshi backstamp. I have classified it as a Western and Japanese tableware set because it includes rice bowls and soy sauce dishes. As shown in photo 8, the soy sauce dishes have some slight chips, but the oval dish and large plates appear to be almost unused. Even if the set isn't complete, it's amazing that so much of it remains. All the plates have the backstamp shown in photo 1 on the back. For those who like it, how about it? MEITO Founded in 1911 by "Kotaro Asukai," who worked as an engineer at Noritake (Nippon Toki), "Nagoya Seitosho (MEITO CHINA)" has its roots in the ceramic company "Teikoku Seitosho."
