help needed in identifying Chinese or Japanese ginger Jar, Mark and Age

These are Chinese, at least in style. Yours has a mark of 青/Qing, which is the blue or green color of Nature and not the dynasty. There are enough of this same type of jar in stores and around eBay to make me wonder if they might still be in production somewhere in China or Southeast Asia. Otherwise, take them as "Kitchen Qing" ware of possibly recent vintage. They don't tend to sell well when you do find them selling. Here are some results:
