These photo's are to small to see fine details buy it looks like Chinoiserie to me, maybe English.

As Stan already said, probably Chinoiserie.
I would look at the decoration closely, the color combination and design give the appearance as if it is raster printed. Do you see small dots at the edges of the decoration?

Thank you Peter and Stan for your responses.
No, there are no small dots on the edges of the decoration.
Does this confirm that the decoration is printed??
Thanyou.

No. The earliest porcelain printing technique involved transfer printing. That is painting on a paper, then transferring this to the porcelain. This was also used in Europe but was much earlier and better developed compared to China. Raster printing is a modern technique. Images you seen on printed paper commonly uses this. It appears also on some modern porcelain in the West, but hardly in China. I believe there is another method used now.
