Its a full tea set in brown, gold and white.

When the tea vups are held up to the light you can see the head of a asian lady.

The tea pot has lucky stamped on the bottom.

What make is and wheres it from?

Answer 1

20thCentury Taisho Eggshell Kutani Lithopane, Japanese.  The Lithopane is referring to the picture in the botton of the  cups and jugs. I think I must have a similar set to you. My mother in law lived in japan for 8 yrs after the war and this was one of the beautiful china sets she brought home to Australia.
