The modern company was organised as Fukagawa Seiji Co., Ltd. in 1894 (Meiji 27), at which point it adopted the Mt. Fuji (富士山) underglaze mark — the same blue Fuji you'll see on the foot of this piece. The white company-history pamphlet enclosed with this kōro narrates the firm's Paris Exposition awards (1900) and its 1910 (Meiji 43) historical designation as a purveyor to the Imperial Household Agency (宮内庁御用達（historical record）). The Fukagawa celadon line is one of the house specialties — fired at high temperature for the dense, translucent jade glaze the company calls \"the gloss of a jewel.\" This particular piece was produced in 1977 (昭和52年), when Fukagawa's Arita workshop was operating across its 11-branch retail network listed on the navy pamphlet enclosed with the kiribako.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUse \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePer the enclosed green maker care card (「ご使用上の注意」), this piece is fired for decorative purposes (装飾を目的に焼造) and is not intended for use as tableware.

The bilingual hakogaki enclosed with this set narrates the early international recognition — the Grand Prix at the 1878 Paris International Exhibition, an honor at the United States 1876 exhibition, the Gold Medal at the 1900 Paris Exposition — and historically documented commissions placed with Koransha by the Imperial Household of Japan. The Koran-sha style was built by blending three of Japan's defining porcelain traditions, Old Imari, Nabeshima, and Kakiemon, into a single contemporary vocabulary. The phalaenopsis pattern in this set is one of the company's enduring botanical designs, named for the moth-orchid that takes its name in Japanese, 胡蝶蘭 (kochōran), from the resemblance to a butterfly in flight. By 1975, when this particular set was retailed through Takashimaya Kyoto Store's 6F tableware floor at ¥50,000, Koransha's pattern range had become a fixed reference within Japanese department-store gift culture — the 5-piece (五客揃) format was the traditional milestone-celebration gift unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUse \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mid-plate (中皿) at 16.7 cm sits squarely in the dessert \/ wagashi \/ appetizer \/ canapé band.

Phalaenopsis is the most prestigious gift-flower in modern Japan, associated with elegance and congratulations; the pattern's traditional pairings are wedding gifts, anniversary gifts, housewarming, retirement, and Father's Day.

The house has supplied the Imperial Household since the Meiji era and remains in operation today. In 1894 the founder's second son, 深川忠次 (Tadatsugu Fukagawa), left Kōransha to establish 深川製磁 Fukagawa Seiji — making Kōransha the elder \"parent\" house from which the now better-known Fukagawa Seiji branched.
