These are commonly called "ginger" jars as the original contents were preserved ginger. Produced in their millions and sold wherever there was a Chinese population, they are quite common but not particularly valuable. They turn up around the early gold fields of Australia. Yours appears to have some damage but with a lid which is desirable.

Cheers

Jim
