Hi,
To me that's a piece of Japanese moriage ware. Most likely 20th century (probably 1st half).
The décor on this one is a bit more unusual but these pieces were made in large numbers around Arita and Satsuma. On balance I'm leaning towards this being a satsuma piece.
The inscription underneath is a bit odd. I can't say about one of the kanji but you have there the katakana "ヤ" literally the sound "ya". I can't really say why that would be there. Maybe an identifying mark for the potter?
I hope this helps.
