Since 1858, when Japan signed the Friendship and Commerce Treaty with the United States, Netherlands, Russia, Great Britain and France, the rest of the world has been privileged to import Japanese wares. The earliest exporter was Morimura-Kumi, which was formed in Tokyo for exporting. Then the Hinode company was established in New York City for retailing, but soon was replaced by Morimura Brothers & Co. The company has gone through many changes, but surprisingly, the NORITAKE form did not occur until 1976 when it was established in Belgium.
Here is an example of an early Hinode red mark with the green JAPAN stamp  |
