There are outfits that will refinish these things for a price. I don't know if they do it properly, by coating it with a glaze and firing it in a ceramic kiln, or they just paint it with something. There are also outfits that will supposedly repair them, but I think they just use a thick, hard, epoxy paint on the chipped parts. At the low end, there's something like that you can buy and use yourself. I think it would be better to just repair the chips with epoxy or paint of some sort than try to re-coat the whole thing with some kind of paint, because if you paint or powder coat it the whole surface will be soft, not just the patched parts.

Maybe you could refinish the whole thing with an ultra-hard paint like POR15, if it comes in white. I would think you'd have to severely sand, sand-blast, or acid etch the glaze in order to get anything to stick to it.
