    The red Marks translate to Imari. So Japanese.

    I don't read Chinese or Japanese but Google translate came up with the translation of the red as Imari only translated from Chinese. shrug emoji smal purple.jpg

    Mine doesn't change when I switch from Chinese to Japanese. Same translation. @say_it_slowly can you make out the impressed mark?
    It looks like an Arita mark.

    That is my impression as well - a relatively recent Chinese vase in the Imari style. The Imari style originated in Arita, Japan (and so is also known as Arita ware. It was exported through the nearby port of Imari). It was so popular it was copied by Chinese porcelain factories as well as European.

    (scoll down to the discussion of Arita)
