This antique Chinese export ginger jar is a fine example of Famille Rose porcelain decoration, likely dating to the 19th century. The large hexagonal form is hand-painted with intricate floral sprays, bamboo, and birds in flight, rendered in delicate enamels of rose, green, yellow, and black. The design demonstrates the refined artistry and symbolism characteristic of Chinese porcelain for the export market, with motifs that represent longevity, prosperity, and harmony with nature.
The jar retains its matching fitted lid, decorated en suite with complementary patterns that unify the piece. Its substantial size and striking form make it a commanding decorative accent, whether displayed in a collection of Asian antiques or as a standalone focal point in a modern interior.
This jar is in nice antique condition, consistent with age and normal use. Minor surface wear is present, but the enameling remains vibrant. A rare and decorative porcelain jar, it reflects both the beauty and craftsmanship of Qing Dynasty export ware. 14h x 8w x 8d
