Dear Ann, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. Your tea set by Noritake is still an active pattern and was introduced by the company in 1989. Looking at the photos that you provided, they would be considered to be in good condition. The design was inspired by the Imperial Style during the era of Napoleon I in the early 19th century. In 1904, the forerunner of the Noritake Company was established by the Morimoto brothers in the village of Noritake, a small suburb near Nagoya, Japan. The goal of this first factory was to create western style dinnerware for export. Based on recent price realization, a fair market value estimate for your tea set would be between 300 and 500 US dollars. Best Regards, Morgan
