About this piece
Round as a moon, glazed like cold milk.
Jingdezhen potters of Jiangxi Province, China, made this lidded ginger jar in porcelain in the 20th century. The city is long associated with Chinese porcelain, and jars of this shape are commonly used for storage and display. The body is wide and almost spherical, under a low domed lid with a small knob. The glaze is a glossy gray-white, scattered with tiny dark flecks, and a faint line of red shows near the lid.
About 18 inches high and wide. Substantial enough to anchor a console.
