A fusion of Japanese and Western culture at Noritake Garden

Among the top brands of prestigious tableware, Noritake is one of the more famous and treasured names in the ceramics industry. Noritake made its start at the current location of Noritake Garden in 1904 under its name at the time: Nippon Toki, Ltd. In 1914, the company created the first dinner set in Japan and exported it, garnering attention from the international community for its Noritake China. The
Noritake Garden complex opened at the headquarters' plant in commemoration of the company's 100th anniversary.
