**Antique Nippon Morimura Brothers 7-Piece Dessert / Berry Set - Pink Roses & Heavy Moriage**
Up for sale/sale is a beautiful, authentic 7-piece antique porcelain dessert set manufactured by the Morimura Brothers (later Noritake China).
This museum-quality Japanese export set dates between 1891 and 1911 based on the historical magenta/pink Maple Leaf backstamp under the primary serving bowl.
The set consists of one large double-handled master serving basin and six matching individual smaller dessert bowls.
Each piece features stunning hand-painted soft pink and white Victorian roses accented by vibrant multi-tonal green leaves. The wavy, scalloped edges are lavishly gilded and decorated with meticulous, raised beaded dot "moriage" scrollwork. A stylized gold floral crest finishes the center of each white porcelain basin.
**Condition Details:**
Excellent antique condition overall. Porcelain is completely free of cracks, chips, or spiderweb crazing. The hand-painted floral panels remain vibrant with minimal wear. The gold gilt displays slight, expected age-related thinning on raised edges, which is perfectly consistent with a turn-of-the-century item. No structural damage or modern restorations. (Please inspect all macro photographs carefully as they serve as the final visual description).
This is hand painted, the last photo shows an unpainted spot, this is not damage.
