This beautiful ginger jar is hand made and hand painted in small workshops in Jingdezhen which is still the centre for the best quality porcelain. During the Ming dynasty, the Emperor set up his famous imperial kilns.

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.

This jar has been decorated with the 'double happiness' symbol on a beautifully detailed floral background. Double happiness means 'Joy and Happiness' and is often on objects gifted at weddings.

All our reproduction Chinese porcelain is made in Jingdezhen which has been the capital of Chinese porcelain production since 1004 AD. The famous imperial kilns have been sited there since the Ming dynasty (1368 - 1644 AD).
