This magnificent, towering vessel is a masterpiece of sculpture and symbolism. This antique Chinese temple jar, measuring a substantial 10 inches wide and 17 inches high, likely dates to the late 19th or early 20th century and embodies the grandeur of imperial porcelain. The surface is adorned with intricate, high-relief sculpted dragons swirling amidst celestial clouds, powerful symbols of imperial authority and good fortune. The rich, pale celadon glaze is a classic and highly prized finish, adding a sense of elegant serenity to the dramatic form.
Originally a ceremonial offering vessel or high-status decorative storage jar, this piece serves as a commanding focal point on a console or mantel, bringing the protective power and intricate artistry of ancient China into your interior design.
