Ginger Jar

Hi Peter
I have this ginger jar with a mark that I was wondering if you may be able to help me with. I have no idea as to age - I don't think it is old, but would be interested in knowing if you could tell me anything about it. Do the brighter colours mean that it is a later period? As today's objects will become tomorrow's antiques, is there any value in keeping the top despite it being repaired in the past? Thanks Chelsea

Here are some extra photos. Still not too clear on the mark, will try for a better photo tomorrow, however, you may be able to tell me what I need to know by just looking at the decoration. Thanks Chelsea
