    Try looking at Japanese Meiji period. Others will probably be able to provide better info.

    Very typical of Japanese Imari ware made for export in the late 19th century (Meiji period)

    Thank you! Any idea on these ones? They were all bought by my grandfather at the same time, so I guess the same type?

    Could we see the backs of the three plates in the middle photo?

    I've got an almost identical one. Late 19th, agreed.

    For the first and third picture, yes same type / period. The quality is a little lower on some of those pieces so they may be straying into the early 1900's, pre WW1.

    Middle photo, these look different, and as @say_it_slowly mentions more pictures will help with trying to place/date them.

    I struggle but I think the one on the left is Chinese and hopefully someone else will be better informed. Close ups of the marks may get more info on the other two.

    Agree, the back of the one on the left looks Chinese and possibly older. Lower plate looks newer, post war. Upper one can't tell from that size.
