I think you could probably safely say first half of the 20th c. Chinese. :shame:
I like the “folk” art look of the decoration!
Puzzler. Not a Chinese nor Japanese mark, but looks “made up.” Quite a bit of hand painting on it, too...
I wonder if it was part of a piece of furniture decoration — you know, when they put porcelain plaques, etc, on furniture.

I was thinking kutani for the bottom one, but I don't see the character for 9 -- 九.
They kinda remind me of Lisa Larsson stuff or Jie -- Swedish. But they would be marked andthese have a small impressed mark/character which makes...

Separate names with a comma.
