Main Description

An antique Chinese blue and white porcelain jar, hand-painted in cobalt on a white ground. A genuine old piece, it carries the subtle glaze variations and signs of age that make it one of a kind.

Jars like this were traditionally made as wedding pieces, decorated with the double happiness symbol – 囍 (shuāngxǐ), two joined copies of the character for joy, representing two people becoming one.

With its distinctive blue and white decoration and aged character, this individual piece can be displayed as a sculptural object on a shelf or mantel, used as a vase for fresh or dried stems, or styled alongside small branches and other collected pieces.
