Additional Features

• GUARDIAN LION MOTIF: A rolling, mane-heavy lion chases a brocade ball around the body in cobalt; this lion jar carries the liveliest drawing in the whole mini jar series;
• PROTECTIVE SYMBOLISM: Guardian lions have flanked Chinese gateways for centuries, so this small jar brings an old protective motif into rooms built on chinoiserie decor;
• HIGH FIRE PORCELAIN: Hand shaped and painted stroke by stroke before firing, so the lidded jar is waterproof and weatherproof, and the blue white surface never looks printed;
• PAIR OR GIVE: Set it beside the plum and pine version for a collected blue white grouping; use the lid to store rings; a small, easy gift for asian decor lovers;
• BRUSHWORK STAYS SHARP: A soft damp cloth is all the lion jar needs, as the cobalt sits under the glaze; skip scourers and bleach, and dust the lid seam before it rejoins bookshelf decor;
