Questions About Mikasa Paperweights
  • What country is Mikasa from?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertFebruary 7, 2024
    The country that Mikasa is from is the United States. In 1948, George Aratani established Mikasa in California. At that time, the name of the company was American Commercial, Inc., and it specialized in importing goods from Japan. After forming a partnership with Alfred Funabashi, the company evolved to focus mostly on importing Japanese porcelainware, and it was renamed Mikasa in the 1950s. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Mikasa china.
  • Is Walther glass Mikasa?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The Mikasa company is a division of the American company Lifetime Brands, with no connection to Walther Glass from Germany. However, there is some evidence that Walther’s glassworks had operated under the name Mikasa for some time following the German reunification in 1990. The lack of published information about Walther Glass will undoubtedly always result in confusion. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of genuine Walther Glass from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • Is Mikasa worth anything?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024
    Yes, some Mikasa is worth something. Particularly, collectors seek out Mikasa china featuring some of the maker's most popular patterns. These include Garden Harvest, French Countryside, Arabella and Silk Flowers. Typically, the style, type, age and condition all determine how much a particular piece is worth, and sets tend to sell for more than individual items. To learn how much Mikasa pieces in your collection may be worth, consider consulting a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Mikasa tableware and decorative objects.
  • Is Mikasa china valuable?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    Yes, some Mikasa china is valuable. Generally, older pieces tend to be worth more than newer ones. However, the type, style, condition, rarity and demand also influence the value of Mikasa china. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can provide you with a valuation for a particular piece. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Mikasa china.
  • Is Mikasa a Japanese company?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    No, Mikasa is not a Japanese brand. The company is actually American. It began in California in 1948 and was eventually purchased by Lifetime Brands, Inc., which operates out of its headquarters in Garden City, New York. Mikasa's Japanese name is a reference to the fact that it originally served as an importer for dinnerware made in Japan. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of Mikasa tableware and decorative objects from some of the world's top sellers.
  • Is Mikasa dinnerware microwave safe?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertFebruary 7, 2024
    Yes, some Mikasa dinnerware is microwave-safe. However, pieces with metallic accents cannot be placed in the microwave. Check the markings on the bottom of your dinnerware to determine whether or not it is safe to use in the microwave. These markings will also tell you if your dinnerware is dishwasher- and oven-safe. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Mikasa dinnerware.
  • Are Mikasa dishes lead-free?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024
    Whether Mikasa dishes are lead-free varies. Contemporary dishes made by the American manufacturer carry certifications that they are free of lead. In addition, online reports state that many vintage pieces tested have also been found to be lead-free. However, some antique and vintage china does contain lead, so it is best to test older pieces with a home testing kit if you're concerned about lead content. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Mikasa dishes.
