Stamped on back "Hand painted Nippon" with letter "M" surrounded by wreath.
Probable dating between 1891 an 1921 -- see notes below:
"Nippon porcelain was made in Japan from 1891 to 1921. Nippon is the Japanese word for "Japan." A few firms continued to use the word Nippon on ceramics after 1921 as a part of the company name more than as an identification of the country of origin. More pieces marked Nippon will be found in the Dragonware, Moriage, and Noritake categories."
"Mark: "M" standing for "Morimura" in a wreath, crowned by "Hand painted" and below, NIPPON. Date: Introduced in 1911 and possible in use until 1921. . A piece of the dinnerware in the Noritake factory in Nagoya ... bears a typical back stamp of Noritake, the letter "M" in a wreath and the words "Hand painted." Noritake first produced dinnerware for the American market in 1914."
