I got these as part of a larger lot, but I'm clueless about these. I apologise in advance if I've posted the image upside down. Is anyone able to enlighten me about age, era etc., thank you in advance.

Many thanks for the information.

That link certainly does help. Having no knowledge of Chinese characters is daunting at first glance.
