About the Item
This exceptional pair of 18th-century Chinese porcelain jars is hand-painted in vibrant famille rose enamels with blooming peonies, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms in brilliant shades of pink, blue, orange, green, yellow, and red.
The floral compositions are exuberant yet refined, painted with a sensitivity to balance and movement.
Made during the Qianlong era, circa 1765, each jar is a fine example of the classic ginger jar form, with a rounded body and domed cover.
While modest in scale, their shape and presence have sometimes led similar pieces to be described as “temple jars” in the decorative arts trade.
Dimensions: 9" tall x 9" diameter

Background of Chinese Famille Rose Porcelain:
Famille Rose is a style of Chinese porcelain decoration introduced in the 18th century.
Famille Rose is a Western classification for Chinese Qing dynasty porcelain known in various terms: fencai, ruancai, yangcai, and falangcai.
The Famille Rose color palette is thought to have been introduced in China during the reign of Kangxi (1654–1722) and perfected in the following Yongzheng era.
Apart from pink, many other soft colors are also used in famille Rose.
The gradation of colors was produced by mixing colored enamels with opaque white enamel.
