Can anyone help me on this? This jar has been in our family for as long as I can remember but I have no clue of it's age, or it's worth... any insight would be appreciated

temple jar
by: peter

Hello,
This is called a temple jar, usually.
It is from the 20th century. I would think about 20s to 40s.
Sorry, we do not talk about values here, but it is an average item.
The writing is not the best in view to calligraphy, but there might be additional information in the text. If you upload a picture of the last two columns (far right), I could check if a cyclical date or artist's name is present.
