Carl,
 
I sent two references to Kitchen Ching and Nonya Ware, which should lead  you 
to roughly identifying your porcelaneous vessel. Here is a synopsis of the  
source:
 
 
Synopsis
"Nonya ware" is the name given to a  variety of porcelain made during the 
19th and early 20th centuries at Ch'ing-te  Chen, commonly found amoungst the 
Straits Chinese of Penang, Malacca, and  Singapore. It is highly distinctive in 
its multi-coloured enamelled decoration,  and was used on festive occasions. 
"Kitchen Ch'ing" has been coined to name the  common household pottery, often 
decorated in blue and white, of Ch'ing-te Chen  or south Chinese provincial 
manufacture, found in daily use in Malaysian  households, and indeed throughout 
South-East Asia. 
 
Most of the characters on those vessels do not have direct  and easy 
translations.
