ginger jar with a tongzhi mark

The marks looks weird, is it of tongzhi period? Sorry, I don't have better photos of the bottom.

Im afraid to say these colors are late 20th century, and I just learned that the shape is called a wax gourd shape, that is what the Chinese call it, not sure what the Westerners would call it, a gourd shaped vase I guess.

I forgot to mention that it is printed.
