This hand-painted ginger jar is finished in cobalt blue with a detailed scene of the phoenix (fenghuang) among flowering peonies. In Chinese symbolism the phoenix represents the empress, while the peony stands for wealth and good fortune.

The jar is made from a mix of kaolin and petuntse and fired at 1400°C. This gives a hard, fully glazed ceramic with a clear ring. The hand finish and the subtle antique look give the ginger jar the character of an original piece.

This is well suited as a decorative focal point on a sideboard or in an open cabinet. For a fresher look, lift off the lid and use the jar as a vase for a compact bouquet, such as white hydrangeas. Sold as a single piece.
