It's highly likely NOT to be Shiwan. Shiwan is in China, these people are obviously Japanese.

This group of figures looks to be stylistically Japanese, so is unlikely to have been made at Shiwan. On the other hand, Taiwan had been a Japanese colony for about half a century before reverting to China in 1945, and the possibility of this having been made in Taiwan during the Japanese occupation can't be ruled out entirely. However, I'd look toward Japan for an answer before looking at Taiwan.

Best regards,

Bill H.
