About the Item

This impressive mid-20th-century floor ginger jar features a commanding emperor-style form and an intricately sculpted foo-dog finial. Standing at an impressive 33 inches tall, the jar showcases a classic rounded silhouette with expressive decorative motifs throughout the glazed ceramic surface. The generous scale and traditional Asian artistic details give the piece a dramatic presence, making it ideal for foyers, grand living rooms, or interior spaces that benefit from a bold, culturally inspired statement piece. The finish retains good color and clarity, while light surface patina and subtle glaze wear are consistent with vintage age. Massive, elegant, and sculptural, this jar serves equally well as a focal-point vessel or as a sophisticated accent in a refined global, eclectic, or chinoiserie setting.
