I just bought a service for 8 set of Noritake china. Glenwood 5770. Can you give me the age of this set?
If you would have told me this morning that I would be buying a set of china today, I would have laughed, but here I am. I saw it in a display case at a thrift store and fell in love. It was absolutely stunning...and I'm a guy!
I would like to know how old it is and if it is of value. I got all kinds of items and each plate, bowl, saucer or what have you comes with 8 pieces. I got a lot of other single pieces as well. To tell the truth, I don't know what I have, but I know beauty when I see it. The sugar bowl itself is what sold me.
Thanks for your help.
At the risk of being redundant, as you already have an answer:
Your "new" pattern was produced from 1956 through 1981, but Noritake is finally coming into its own. The sugar bowl you so loved is typical of their postwar NEW view on china. They often used forms that were more cutting edge than some of the "classic" manufacturers. It's an interesting juxtaposition, a rather traditional pattern on a "modern" blank. The platinum trim is also typical of china patterns of the fifties, not just from Noritake.
Works from this company were once looked down on by "serious" collectors, often referred to as NoriTACKY and, as a result, could be had very inexpensively. However, in the last 10 - 15 years, people have really begun to take notice of this companies work. It was once the china of the "common people" as it was relatively inexpensive. But they did make many beautiful pieces and some lovely patterns in dinnerware.
All that really matters is that you like it, but it will probably appreciate in value. Congratulations! Now enjoy your "new" purchase!
