Hello, please add pictures.

i have several cups coffee cups all with saucers of two different sizes to match the cups & there are matching teapot milk jug & sugar jar (not a bowl), they are in a very distinctive brown & blue with some embossed colours of red & green, the picture is of a geisha/lady with two japanese/chinese males either side of her, she has a gold edge that goes sort of over her & you can see what i believe to be a lotus flower just underneath her, the handles are of a bamboo style with a raised yellow paint on , the symbol underneath seems to be japanese gate of honour with the letters/initials E E G going around it with some other numbers/letters in japanese/chinese, so i was just wondering if anybody could tell me what it is.
