Mini Story


This striking mid-century Japanese coffee set was produced by Nagoya China for the post-war export market. With its bold blue-to-turquoise ombré glaze and clean modernist forms, it captures the optimism and design confidence of the 1950s–60s.


Japanese manufacturers such as Nagoya China became highly regarded during this period for producing well-made, stylish porcelain that appealed to Western tastes, particularly in Australia, the UK and the US. A beautiful and usable example of mid-century tableware with strong display appeal.
