Description
The lidded ginger jar is one of the most enduring and versatile forms in blue and white decorative ceramics, and this generously proportioned example makes a strong statement in any interior with its layered cobalt linework and bold geometric and floral composition.
Finished with cobalt blue linework on a warm white ground, this rounded lidded ginger jar combines floral vines, diamond panels, dotted bands and geometric borders in a layered decorative composition. The matching domed lid with blue knop completes the form, making it a versatile display piece for blue and white groupings, console styling or curated ceramic cabinets. Ginger jars of this scale and decorative density work particularly well as anchor pieces in a blue and white display, and the combination of geometric and floral motifs gives this example a classic chinoiserie-inspired character that suits a wide range of interior styles. This example is in visible condition as shown in the images.
