Japanese or Chinese eggshell tea set

Description

Beautiful set of possibly Japanese or Chinese eggshell china. Teapot, milk jug, sugar bowl, cups, saucers, various sized plates and a decorative bowl. Painting of a crane, lakes, flowers and hills. Passed down through the family from an ancestor who sailed the seven seas as a carpenter on a clipper ship or so we were told. If anyone can tell me about this set, I would be most obliged. I have included the marking on all the set but have not come across it when researching minimally.
