Antique Noritake M 20-Pieces dinnerware set. ( excellent condition)

Noritake Back Stamp: What the M Means. The M in the wreath mark was used from around 1914 to 1940. Noritake stopped importing to the United States in 1940. The M stands for Morimura. (The Morimura brothers were early importers of Japanese goods to America.) After the war, several years went by before Noritake started to supply dinnerware to the US again. As of the 1950s, they had replaced the M with an N for Noritake, and kept the colored wreath motif This set is very gorgeous, made in 1940 in excellent condition as shown in the pictures. Rarely found on the market today. Set includes: 4 dinner plates, 4 salad plates, 4 butter plates, 4 tea cups and 4 saucers. ( We will free 4 fruit bowls for the first 2 orders, please ask before buy them) thanks
