I believe that this is a copy of a plum blossom cup in the Kangxi style, I think somewhere in the 2nd half of the 20th century.

This is Japanese, Arita, Ryuho Yaki. Mark reads Ryuho.

Thanks Peter, I would have never guest Japanese, I guess that explains the poor rendering of the plum blossom kanji style decoration.

By the looks of the bottom and no visible age signs, I would say late 20th century.
