Seeking positive I.D for old Noritake (Fruit Bowl?)

Bought this bowl & would like to get a fix on the age & approximate worth.


Size is 10"D x 2 3/4"H - seems to have no crazing or impact marks - there is a few minor utensil scratches to the glaze, but no impact marks & moderate trim (Gold) loss for its age. Retains nice eye appeal! Is round, with what I would describe as a "scalloped" rim & has a foot with a Gold ring.


My research would indicate the backstamp is "The Blue Circa 1908 Registered - London Mark" (Ref. page 42, Noritake For Australia & New Zealand by Karry-Leeanne Fisher). After drawing this conclusion, I obtained some anecdotal support from the seller who said her Mother (aged 80+) confirmed it came from the Mother's Aunties estate - seems to tie in nicely with the backstamp era.


Again, using the aforementioned reference book as a guide, the bowl clearly comes within the "Good" condition category.


Please, I will take any help I can get!
