IMO, these are recent, late 20th century items, probably originally sold through a Japanese store.
The signature reads 秀風作 (Shufu saku - made by Shufu), although one object is signed 光亭 (Kotei).

If found similar items at Japanese online auctions priced in a range of 500 to 5000 JPY.

Thank you Guy for the information - I do know that the original owner (who's past) had them all professionally framed by an individual whose company closed in the late 90's or so --- Again, thanks for the info

The signature reads 秀鳳作(Shuho saku, made by Shuho),not 'Shufu saku'.

Botan,

You are correct, it is 'Shuho saku' indeed.
