This large porcelain jar is beautifully glazed in the classic blue-and-white manner, with hand-painted cobalt-blue decoration against a crisp white field. The jar has a rounded form and flat lid, a traditional shape for jars used to hold Chinese tea leaves or herbal medicines. The painted decoration depicts a celestial dragon winding across the sides through abstract clouds. Considered the king of all mythical creatures, the dragon is a common symbol in Chinese art and a symbol of strength, ambition, luck and power. A greek key border encircles the neck of the jar and the lid is painted with a cloud and flaming pearl.

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
