Looks like tin-glazed earthenware to me, which would rule out Chinese.
Delftware - Continental or possibly English. However, they look too good to be original 18th Century Delftware, and I can't see holes for hanging on the wall, which an original would have, and they seem to be a more 19th Century shape.

Best to ask your local museum, or The Museum of London if possible, as they have a very good collection of Delftware for comparison.

I'm pretty sure they are porcelain, I would also think Chinese and last half of the 19th Century. (but for all I know they could be a fair bit earlier)

Porcelain would account for them looking so good. May even be Japanese, copying Chinese.

Might be 18th Century. Domestic-ware of that period wouldn't be marked.
