    Hey guys!

    Thrift store find. I know these are probably nothing special, but they look nice :) I would appreciate if someone could identify the mark for me and any information on them is helpful.
    They are quite large and heavy. Height approx. 27 cm (11 inches).

    Thanks a lot!
    Erik

    The correct orientation is on the right in your last image. The top right character is for China.

    They represent Japanese ladies. More specifically geishas, with those low backs on the kimonos.

    According to gotheborg, it says China Made--Zhongguo Zhi Zao. Probably 1950s.
