EUC Antique 1911-21 Noritake RS Nippon Condensed Milk Jam Jar Holder Underplate For Sale

Overall, this set is in Excellent Condition for its age. No chips or cracks to the porcelain. The paint decoration shows only minor wear in places. The gold handles show a bit more wear.

Through research, I believe this set was made between. 1911-1921.

Both the plate and the jar are marked with the green RC backstamp, which has been dated  from 1911 and likely used until 1921, when they were required to use "Japan" or "Made in Japan" in place of "Nippon".

Plate is 6" in diameter

Jar is 3 1/4" in diameter and  4" tall

Weighs 1 lb

The jar was made to present and serve jelly, jam, or a container of condensed milk at the table. The large circular opening in the base facilitates removal of the condiment-filled glass or tin by enabling the user to push up through the hole to raise it high enough to be easily grasped and lifted out. The lid was intended to keep the contents of the jar fresh, and the underplate provided a place to rest a sticky spoon, preventing a mess at the table.
