I read the four character-mark as "Yong Mao Yuan Ji" 永茂源記.

The mark over the door reads "Ximen" 西門

Possibly: Ximen Qing, who is a fictional character (a merchant and womenizer) in the novels "Jin Ping Mei" Jīnpíngméi [金瓶梅] and "Water Margin" Shuǐhǔ Zhuàn [水浒传]

BTW: the same object has been discussed in the forum before. See here for more info.
