Photo 3 - a cup, part of a tea set (no visible marks)

1. Four figure Kangxi mark, indicating a 19th century Chinese origin for this object, confirmed by the rough footrim.

2. I am no expert on Japanese porcelain, but this is an example of the native style of transfer-printing, which was invented in the late 19th century.

3. Again, no expert on the Japanese stuff, but I think this might be Kutani ware.
