Questions About Nippon China
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Nippon was marked on china exported to the United States from Japan between 1891 and 1921. During this time, the country of origin had to be marked on all manufactured goods, and “Nippon” is the Japanese word for Japan. Browse a selection of authentic Nippon china from reputable sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    China marked Nippon may be up to 130 years old. In 1891, Japanese artisans began marking their pieces with the word Nippon to comply with the McKinley Tariff Act, which required all porcelain to bear the name of the country that produced it. Nippon is a direct translation of Japan. Shop a selection of Nippon china on 1stDibs.
