Morimura green mark (Noritake)
You are invited to come along with me as I learn about Japanese ceramics. I will share what I learn about the kilns, history, terminology, potters, decorators, styles, and marks. This is a work in progress. ** NOTICE: I NO LONGER ANSWER QUERIES ON PERSONAL PIECES. I DO NOT GIVE VALUATIONS.

Luster Ware
Luster ware developed after 1921. Noritake used it extensively, but many other manufacturers in Japan did as well. There are varying degrees of quality depending on who manufactured it. Luster ware was also used in Europe, especially Bavarian and Czech are found.
The mark is unknown but this was made in Gifu Prefecture.
This divided luster ware plate is by Tashiro Shoten
