You can see the price that Noritake china has sold for on ebay:
www.ebay.com/
The 'M' mark in the wreath 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.

Wow, this is beautiful..
Thanks for the pictures. I'll see what I can find.
I can provide information as requested but no information pattern.
I do not know how much help we can provide, as you do not provide a very good picture of the pattern.
I love Noritake and frequently get carried away with the history of this company.
You can find information pertaining to the markings on your china.
This site shows your pattern as being made from 1910 - 1911.
Green 1910 - 1911
Morimura Bros
Check out 1910 on this site:
www.noritakecollectorsguild.info/
However, there are other sites that show this mark to have been produced from 1910-1921.
Who is correct?
"Mark: "M" standing for "Morimura" in a wreath, crowned by "Hand painted" and below, NIPPON. Date: Introduced in 1911 and possible in use until 1921.
"Until 1921 Noritake predominately marked export wares "Nippon," one word used to describe the country of Japan. In 1921 American import law changed to require the place of origin be marked on a product in English. Since Nippon was an adaptation of a description of the island country in the native language, Nippon was no longer acceptable under the new law. Backstamps after 1921 state "Japan" or "Made in Japan."

Hopefully, another member will be able to help with the pattern name.
