The Vintage Noritake Morimura "Purple Iris" 3-Footed Dish is a round porcelain candy dish with a floral pattern of purple iris. Hand-painted with a glossy finish, this original piece from the Noritake brand was produced between 1921 & 1940. With its art pottery production style and printed backstamp, this vintage dish is a charming representation of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Care instructions recommend hand washing only to maintain its beauty for years to come. Wonderful shape for its age (like me!).
