After a 3-year search for just the right accent in my foyer, I finally found it! I paired this gorgeous jar with the "Polzin 22" High East Asian Vase Stand" (Wayfair), and the effect is stunning. The jar is not quite pure white, but has just a whisper of gray. In my opinion, the softer shade of white looks more rich than a bright white. The size is perfect - looks majestic, with the clean lines and octagonal detailing on the lid, but is not so large as to be overwhelming. Perfectly elegant.
