Meito China Luncheon Set

Description

I have a beautiful luncheon set of Meito Handpainted. Tranquil setting has a windmill and water mostly orange and purple in coloring. I know a small amount about the company, that it started in 1908, by a former noritake engineer. I have searched and searched for this set and cannot find the name of the pattern or the pattern itself. 

The back is stamped in green and reads Meito China, with a crown below it, Handpainted made in Japan.

Thanks!
