I have a set of Noritake china, including a serving plate, 6 side plates, 5 saucers, and 4 cups with the burgundy Meruki stamp, "Made in Japan". I can't find an exact design match on the internet to determine the design or value, if any. Do you know anything about this set please?

Your pattern is Bantry (N Bant) and according to history of Noritake marks this particular marking was first used in 1908. Replacements and most other sites show this pattern as 1930 with no ending date (although we know it has ended). Most likely the pieces that were shipped to the US started in 1930-1931.
China is just not a sought after item and this present crisis has not helped the market. You can check out the pieces you have to see what other sellers are asking and you can place a watch on eBay pieces to see if any sell.
Replacements has a few pieces listed for sale and you can always contact them to see if they are interested in purchasing your items. Their price will be low but at least you would know for future reference.

These are lovely pieces, highly sought after, sense they are discontinued. Replacements.com has a few pieces if you want to add to your collection. If you want to sell, you could advertise on the various sites, along with good staging!
