I inherited a set of Noritake China and would like to know the value. On the back it says Noritake Handpainted with a Letter M in the middle. Below that it says Made in Japan, then Japanese writing, then No. 16034. I do not know the name of the pattern but it is white with gold scrollwork all the way around each piece.

Hi, subobu!

I know that your question is somewhat dated now. But, I just noticed it.

I've titled and moved it to a thread by itself so that it will get noticed more.

You had placed it on the old and now archived thread of someone else. That thread is not generally visible on a daily basis, unless someone happens to visit this forum topic area or has been notified because there was activity on the thread on which they had replied.

Because this place doesn't work the same way that a chat room does, new questions, that aren't in some way, an answer to the very first question at the top of the page, need to be asked by starting a new thread.

Concerning your question - Does what you have, look like any of those that you'll find via clicking on the following image searches?

If so, which ones, please?

Noritake Replacements, Pattern "M" - Google Search (http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&source=hp&q=Noritake%20Replacements%2C%20Pattern%20%22M%22&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi)

Thanks!

I hope this is not rude to jump in the middle; I have several pieces of Noritake 16034 and would like to learn more about and eventually sell. Any information you can pass along would be appreciated.

The set that I have is the Noritake 16034. Thank you very much!
