Chinese porcelain jar...new? Maybe a little age?

    Picked this up at a thrift store price so not worried about losing any money on it...

    9.25 inches (23.5 cm) high, about 7 inches in diameter at the widest point. 4 character mark in red on base, that although appears handwritten, is messy/not clear. Not sure if the dirty interior is fake dirty or not. Has a wooden lid that fits pretty well. 4 characters written in black on the reverse side from the flowers...peonies I think. Maybe @Couch Potato Wannabe can have a go at a translation?

    Any chance this has any age on it? Early to mid 20th? Brand new trying to look older?

    Thanks for looking!

    Can't read the Chinese, but seems much nicer than average.

    Hope you get some information on this. :)
