China set lithophane geisha girl

Description

We picked up a china set that has the geisha girl lithophane in the bottom of the teacups, and a landscape scene similar to hayasi Kutani.  The mark in the bottom is in japanese or chinese letters.  There is a lot of what appears to be gold painted on the picture.  Village with lake and a dock, I think, and trees with mountain in background.

The set has 6 small saucers, 6 larger saucers, 6 tea cups, large teapot with lid, creamer, and a sugar bowl.  The set is not perfect - we see a few chips, a small saucer has two pieces glued back onto it, etc. 

Just looking for some information on the age, potential price, history, etc.  I know nothing about china so this is all interesting and new to me.  :-)
