Welcome to the Noritake Collectors Guild Backmarks Library
The Backmarks Knowledge Library is an ongoing project of our unique knowledge sharing culture providing users with qualitative information to assist in identifying 'as closely as possible' the era in which their pieces of Noritake China were produced.

We would like to thank all those who have contributed over the years to make this site the world's most comprehensive library of Noritake Backmarks possible. Contributors include Collectors, Dealers and many with simple a passing interest. For those who have contributed we thank you and acknowledement your contributions.
