Classic Chinese landscape painting compresses mountains, water, and a distant pavilion into a few washes of ink, and Legend of Asia carries that tradition around the body of this orchid pot. The landscape motif is hand painted freehand on high fire clay in a small town in southern China known as the Capital of Ceramic, so each cachepot tells its scene a little differently. Fired hot, the blue porcelain body turns dense and waterproof, which means the planter pot handles real watering, humid bathrooms, and covered outdoor use. Its modest footprint suits a desk, a windowsill, or shelf decor between books, and planted with a fern or orchid it becomes a living table centerpiece and a quiet piece of chinoiserie decor or asian decor.
