Antique Noritake Morimura Cherry Blossom Demitasse Set Blue Hand Painted Japan
Description: Antique early Noritake / Morimura hand-painted demitasse service in the highly collectible blue cherry blossom pattern, dating circa 1920s–1930s. This elegant Japanese porcelain grouping features soft powder blue grounds with pink cherry blossoms, black branchwork, rich gilt accents, and the early green Noritake wreath “M” backstamp.
An unusually decorative and display-worthy collection with exceptional visual presence.
