Hello,

Your vase is made by the Porceleyne Fles in  1922 (year code AR) by J. van Lijnschoten who painted between 1889 and 1935.

Regarding the rarity, in the book Royal Delft A guide to de Porceleyne Fles by Rick Erickson this type of vase with a lion head is given rarity 2 which means it’s uncommon (rarity 1 is the most rare):
