This reproduction Chinese blue & white temple jar is crafted in the traditional Chinese style. The painting depicts five claw dragons. Although the dragon was claimed as the symbol of the emperor during the Han dynasty (206 BC - 22 AD) it wasn't until the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) that the five claw dragon became the specific symbol of imperial might. It was then that the use of the five claw dragon outside of the imperial court became treasonous.

It is hand painted by skilled artists using traditional techniques learned from their family passed down through generations.

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).
