  Mikasa
Mikasa was built in the United Kingdom, and closely resembled contemporary British battleships.
Mikasa was the largest, most modern, and most powerful vessel in the Imperial Japanese Navy upon her delivery, and was Admiral Togo's flagship during the Russo-Japanese War.
She was in the thick of the fighting throughout the war, being damaged by three hits during the bombardment of Port Arthur, 22 hits at the Battle of the Yellow Sea, and 32 hits at the Battle of Tsushima.

  Japanese battleship Mikasa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mikasa (三笠) is a pre-Dreadnought battleship, formerly of the Imperial Japanese Navy, launched in 1900.
Thanks to this design, Mikasa was able to withstand a large number of direct hits: she received around 20 hits during the battle of the Yellow Sea on 10 August 1904, and around 30 hits during the battle of Tsushima, with only limited damage.
The Mikasa ran aground during the Japanese intervention in Siberia during the Russian Civil War on 16 September 1921 in the Askold Channel while cruising in dense fog.

 eBay Guides - Tableware History Info MIKASA CHINA PORCELAIN OF JAPAN
Named in honor of Prince Mikasa, the youngest brother of Emperor Hirohito, Mikasa soon established itself as one of the most recognized Japanese brand names in the West.
Although Mikasa found success as an import-export trading company, a strategic decision was made to add ceramic dinnerware to the company's line of products in 1948.
By the beginning of the 1960's, Mikasa had established a reputation as "the pioneer of American casual." They refined their product range by introducing new patterns in unique groups known as "lines." For example, the Studio Nova line was produced for the "young-at-heart" casual diners who would likely eat their meals in the kitchen.
