Vintage Yellow Porcelain Ginger Jar with Fish & Lotus Motif | Chinoiserie Home Decor | 3.9″ Tall

A showstopper. This jar is cloaked in saturated imperial yellow — the color historically reserved for Chinese emperors — then hand-decorated in bold famille verte enamel with two plump red koi swimming through lotus blooms, water lilies and trailing pond weeds.

The composition wraps 360° around the round belly: red fish, turquoise leaves, rust-red lotus flowers and tiny yellow blossoms dot the bright ground. A straight-sided flat lid in matching yellow repeats small four-petaled flowers, and double ruyi bands ring the neck and foot.

Yellow is the color of wealth, prosperity and the emperor’s own household in Chinese tradition — pair it with our red auspicious jar for the boldest New Year or wedding gift on the market.
