Japanese Vase information please

[going-to-discover-the-world-b4-i-die]

Im hoping someone can read the marking on this Japanese vase. I cant quite read the english words (Maluin fire??) and definitely cannot read the Japanese.  Im hoping it has a manufacture date.  Any ideas or info greatly appreciated, thank you

Just had a third chinese friend confirm that the markings 中國製造 = made in China.  So im still stumped lol.  Thanks everyone for your input, greaty appreciated.  I was hoping to get some information regarding the jar itself.  It seems its a ginger jar, hand pottered and hand painted.  I'll keep researching, cheers Chez

Now that you mention it, you are right, it's a ginger jar.

The right size, shape and style to be a Chinese ginger jar.
