These Dragonware lithophane pieces are nearly always Japanese, yours were likely marked with paper or foil labels, common to such pieces. Older Japanese porcelain ( 1891-1921) would be generally marked "Nippon". Trade stopped with Japan during World War Two, similar wares were made both before and after WW2. Values for Dragonware are very modest currently, whole sets go for under $150.00 at auction.
