Green Asian Ginger Jar

Description

This jar was purchased at an estate auction.  I have no idea what the markings on the bottom mean, I have tried researching them but can't find any exactly like it.  Is it Japanese or Chinese?  The glaze is completely crazed/crackled, not sure if that is damage or was produced that way on purpose. :)

<p>Your piece is a modern example of Japanese satsuma, the crackle glaze is meant to give it the appearance of great age. Value wise it&#39;s worth about what you paid for it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
