History and Features of the Christine Series
Inheritance of Classic Design:
The Christine series was born from the fusion of Noritake's long-cultivated high metalworking technology and design sense. Its elegant silhouette embodies a classical atmosphere reminiscent of good old Western tea times.

Materials and Color Variations:
The main body is made of nickel silver, and beautiful gold plating or pink gold plating is applied by craftsmen. It is characterized by the choice between the gorgeousness of gold and the gentle hue of pink gold.

Representative Items:
It mainly features items essential for tea time, such as teaspoons and cake forks. The handles are adorned with elegant and intricate decorations (embossing and relief), which beautifully adorn the table.
Commitment to Manufacturing:
Like other Noritake tableware series, it embodies the company's founding philosophy of making customers feel joy in owning it. Its meticulous finishing down to the smallest detail, balancing usability and the value of attachment, is a major appeal.
