The vase looks vaguely Bizen but the colour of the stoneware body (around the base mark) suggests not or it is not made from the usual clay used in ceramics made in and around Bizen City.
I clearer image of the stylised vase would be useful plus an image of the printed paper sheet included.

For future reference - the red seal on the lid should be bottom left and it's the potter's seal - the kanji above is the potter's signature. Usually top right on the lid reading down is the pottery area the pot is from and down the centre (not on this box) is what is in the box. The writing on this box on the right does not read Bizen and, although I do not know what it says my best guest is that it is a description of what is in the box.
The printed paper looks as if it had all the information about the potter but in Japanese, which like you, I can't read.
