Shaped according to millennia-old prototypes fired in Bronze Age, this early 20th-century ceramic jar from northern China once stored wine and spirits made from rice and grains. Thrown on a wheel, the jar shows the subtle ribs associated with the process. Small loop handles complete its perfect proportions. Weathered by time, the glaze has rubbed off in spots, earning the jar a fantastic surface texture highly sought after by those who yearn for “wabi sabi”.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
