If it is Chinese, I would think it would be early Qing dynasty, or even Ming. IF it is Chinese...the decoration is unusual and there are almost no typical Chinese details. For example the roof of the hut shown on the right side has a thatched roof, and the boat and fisherman are also pointed somewhat different from the usual Chinese way. All floral decorations are a bit unusual to what we commonly see. I suspect it might be a very early Japanese imitation of Chinese style decorations.
But in this case too, I think it would be perhaps from the early Edo period or even earlier.

I'm not very familiar with Chinese style Japanese decorations of that early time. It is just that almost all details are painted in a less common style. Maybe someone knowing more about early Japanese wares can tell!?

It seems faience (tin glazed pottery), not porcelain.
In this case it is of European origin, probably from Delft.
This pottery (or porcelain) produced in Europe, in Oriental style decoration, is called Chinoiserie.
If you Google "Delft garlic head vase", this shape is so called, you can find many examples.
This is just my opinion.

Hello, Peter and Adriano. Thank you very much for your answers. I searched for "Delft garlic head vase" and found similar vases. Thank you very much.

There you got me! I know too little about the different styles of Chinoiserie, mostly the type similar to Chinese export wares. Those I recognize are mostly easy to detect without further investigating.   :)
