Nippon Sugar Bowl and Creamer, Antique, Footed, Cream Band, Orange Floral, Gold Trimmed
A beautiful sugar bowl and creamer made in Nippon (Japan). The pattern is white with a cream colored band with orange flowers and gold trim. These sit on three porcelain feet making them very elegant. This is an antique set dating from the early 1910s. What a wonderful statement this set will make on your table, buffet, or sideboard.
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 a 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.
