Looks like bottom of a saucer! Is it upside down?

It is a lithophane of a geisha on the bottom of the teacup. Can we see the front of the teacup and the markings on the saucer bottom?

Here is a link that might be useful: Lithophane

We sold similar which were reproductions in the 1980s.
go to ebay and search for lithophane teacups .

Wow, wasn't even looking for the lithophane! I have a small Germany tankard with girl & geese & didn't notice it until I held it up to the light to see if I got it dry! What a nice surprise. I have a couple of mini teacups I guess I should have a look at. They are only about 1 inch tall.
