VerifiedA service 12 plus some serving pieces of Meito Japan china made from 1950 to 1970 (approx)
in the Lace pattern has a current value of $300 to $400 retail.
Some sites that I recommend for selling are Offerup.com (local), Varagesale.com (local) , Wanelo.com, Bonanza.com, Ioffer.com, Etsy.com, Ebay and letgo.com (local).
You can also go to invaluable.com or liveauctioneers.com and search their directory for an auction house near you and consign to them.

It is certainly possible that the set was made a few years earlier.
If you see the words Made in Occupied Japan, it would be made between 1945 to 1952.
ALL items from Japan during that time had to have that mark by law, you didn't mention
it so I dated the set to starting in the 1950's. The Lace pattern does not have an exact 'first ontroduced' date,
and could be 1944 without the Made in Occupied Japan mark. This would not change the
value, however.
Please do click the five stars and hit submit .
