Noritake Platter

[GreenhornGirl]

Hey all!  I got this Noritake painted platter or tray and I can't find any other like it (my typical issue).  It's 11.5" handle to handle x 8 1/8", and 1 5/8" deep.  I'll put the bottom stamp on the next post.  I read that the earlier patterns used a lot of gold, as does this one.  From the bottomstamp I think it's 1918-1933.  I can't find anything else about it like a pattern name or a value, though...haven't found one similar yet.  Not sure what type of bird this is, either.

Again beautiful!!!!!!  This mark c.1918 - and was used with modifications until the New York office of Noritake closed in 1941. It was used in a variety of colors but this green was used on patterns decorated at the main factory at Nagoya. No luck on finding this one

Thanks, Wendy!  Noritake seems to vary so much in value...I found a $5,000 powder box down to like $14 teacup & saucer sets.  I would think this would be worth something, but how much, I have no idea!

I have another Noritake platter/tray that I haven't been able to find info on yet...it's smaller, 8 5/8" long.  Textured gold overlay.  Anyone know an approximate date, value, pattern, or anything?  Tips much appreciated as always!!
