Tiny tip-shop treasures

I know I bang on, on a fairly regular basis, about how awesome our tip shops are.

And I know I've previously mentioned that they have an fabulous social-media presence where they post new finds regularly to Facebook, with the option to text or call them to put things on hold.

Which is how I managed to snaffle this reading chair for my library (because in my new home, there is no Room of Shame) for $40, while in bed, in my PJs:

 and this excellently-themed side table for the same amount, at 9pm one evening:

Similarly, I spotted this basket full of minis one evening and popped it on hold:

I recognised most of the pieces in the lot, and already had quite a few of them, but this set of crockery mystified me:

They are most certainly mass-produced, but aren't ringing any bells. And my requests through mini-related social media groups haven't turned up anything.

Do you recognise them at all? My gut says they're German, but I don't know why...
