Additional Features

• WINDOW PANELS: Framed reserves ring this octagonal jar, each opening onto its own painted scene; the faceted body gives the temple jar sharper architecture than a round form;
• BRUSHWORK DEPTH: Cobalt is laid in washes and fine outlines, so the blue white pattern shifts from near black to pale sky; hand painted detail rewards a close second look;
• HIGH FIRE PORCELAIN: Hand shaped in southern China and kiln fired until the glaze is glassy and hard; a substantial lidded jar of asian decor with real heft and a cool smooth surface;
• ENTRY ANCHOR: Perfect entryway decor beside a mirror, or a pair of ginger jar shapes flanking a mantel; safe on a covered porch and easy to clean with a soft cloth and warm water;
• FACETED PANELS STAY CLEAN: Run a soft damp cloth along each side of this octagonal jar and into the corners; no sealing is needed, and skipping harsh chemicals keeps the chinoiserie decor crisp;
