This beautiful piece is a modern black glazed Ginger Jar. Ginger Jars are steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history. Even though pottery developed in China 15,000 years ago, most experts believe that true porcelain - which also originated in China - didn't emerge in the region until the Han Dynasty -(202 BC to 220 AD.

Ginger jars are steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history originating in the Qin dynasty (221 - 207 BC) when ginger and other luxury Chinese goods became a major export to the Western world. These decorative jars were used onboard ships for storage.
