The apocryphal six character base mark reads,
大清同治年製 -  Made During the Tongzhi Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty (1861-1875)

However, your vase is from the 21st century.
Besides of the flowers, dragons, cock and rabbit
there are four ligatured ( characters arrranged in special formations) idioms related to New Year.
Pic.1,
Left of the cock,
黄金萬両 - Ten thousand golden tael
Right of the cock,
日日財進 - Growing wealth day by day
Pic.2,
Left of the rabbit,
日進斗金 - Ten peck of gold every day
Right of the rabbit,
招財進寳 - Ushering in wealth and prosperity

With regards,
I.Nagy
