Marked "Occupied Japan" — a designation used only between 1945 and 1952, during the Allied occupation following World War II. Pieces from this era are among the most historically specific and collectible of all mid-century Japanese export porcelain, and the window for their production was brief.
This 18-piece Mayflower pattern set by Fuji China features the delicate floral decoration characteristic of the period: refined, quietly beautiful, and made with the craftsmanship that defined Japanese export ware of the era.
