Ceramic laughing Buddha, Chinese? With stamp to base

[Cbuk1]

I purchased this from a second hand store. I think it has some age and it has a stamp to the base. I presumed Chinese? I have had a good look online and found nothing similar. Any help on age/use / origin is much appreciated. Thank you

The pictures are too small to see details clearly. Please try to make them about 400 px wide with good resolution. Cannot read the characters in the mark. Not sure if it is the writing itself or the image resolution. All I can tell you with this now is that the stamp seems to be of the type used in Japan.

Thank you I'm using my iPhone , at a loss at how to do it so I will look into how to do this and try to repost better pictures.
