Hi, regardless what is written on it, it is new or recently made.
The shape is not a traditional shape, the writing looks as if it could be printed (is it?), and the glaze crackling seems to be of recent manufacture also.
In addition there are simplified characters present. These came into use in China after the 1950s, so it can't be very old in this view too.
