Good afternoon, Sharon,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. So that I may best assist you, can you please confirm how many pieces make up each place setting? (dinner plates, luncheon plates, salad/dessert plates, bread & butter plates, soup plates, cups, saucers etc) as well as specifically how many platters, bowls, tureens, etc. For the tea service, are there coffee and tea pots? demitasse cups and saucers? creamer/sugar bowl / waste bowl?
Thanks!
Delia
Note- all pieces are visible in the photos. Not sure if the 12 smallest are for bread or maybe scraps? small with sides- like very shallow bowl.
Thanks, Sharon, for the piece count. Noritake is bringing about $1-2/piece at auction these days, regardless of date.
