Looks like an Imari vase from the Arita region.
The big square mark reads: Fuku 福 (= fortune).
The other mark: in native Japanese reading (ON): Asahiyama 旭山 Zo 造 (made by Asahiyama).
In Sino Japanese reading (KUN): Kyokuzan 旭山 Zo 造 (made by Kyokuzan).
Kyokuzan is a name seen on Satsuma and Kutani pottery / porcelain, but not on Imari, so I think the small sticker is right: Asahiyama circa 1890.
Regards,
Martin.

Martin-
Thank you so much for this information. Do you think that this jar is Meiji era circa 1890? Thank you again for your help
