Good afternoon, Lynn,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. Rather than wait for a photograph of the entire set, I have moved forward and valued it based on other Noritake tea sets of comparable size. If you are able to take a photograph of the entire set, I would be happy to re-assess the value as necessary.

Based on the photographs and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:

A Chinoiserie style Noritake hand-painted porcelain six piece tea set
Bears red Morimura "M" mark (which has been used since 1918), probably mid 20th Century
Made in Japan, comprising:
6 cups with 6 saucers
6 sandwich plates
Tea pot
small platter
sugar bowl
cream pitcher
PROVENANCE: belonged to client's grandmother
$60-90*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.

Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you for using Mearto.
