With its rounded body and high shoulders, this tall ginger jar is the perfect canvas for its rich, peach blossom glaze. For many Qing-dynasty elite, peach blossom was a preferred finish to fine ceramics for its resemblance to sweet, ripened fruit. The copper-based glaze can be unpredictable when firing, resulting in wonderful imperfections. This jar's lush coat of wine-red glaze is speckled with flecks of deep burgundy and contrasted by the unglazed edges along the base and lip.
