Can anyone identify this large lidded porcelain/china jar/vase? It stands 14 inches tall and has a bird figure on the top of the lid. It is very vividly and brightly colored (looks hand painted but can't be 100% sure). There's a "323" painted on the bottom and, inscribed are what appears to be the number "20" and a small "x" and what looks like a pick-ax. Any help with what it's called, who made it, age, etc. would be very helpful. Thanks!

try searching ginger jars and/or temple jars. I don't know anything about the marks.

Ginger jar sounds good. I prefer the Maryann jar.

Are you sure you don't prefer the Mrs. Howell Jar?

Ginger jars are generally squattier and rounder...I was thinking maybe apothocary-style jar?
