Hey everyone, someone recommended I ask here. I found this set at a thrift store and j was really hoping to get some help finding information about them.  They look and feel ancient and aside from the obvious artwork, they have these small bumps along the handles. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

This is Japanese in the satsuma style, I see this all time, I am not all that familiar with later Japanese porcelain but I think it would be safe to say 2nd half of the 20th century.

These are simply modern reproductions of the "Shimazu Mon" style of Satsuma.  The design became popular due to the quality of the pieces made for the Shimazu Mon clan.  Stan is probably right on the time period.
