A beautifully hand‑painted Chinese porcelain lidded jar, approximately 6 1/2 inches tall, featuring delicate florals, leafy branches, and a small bird in flight. The artwork is in pink, purple, red, yellow, green and warm gold accents, with a traditional reddish‑orange border that frames the design. The brushwork is refined and expressive, characteristic of mid‑20th‑century Chinese decorative porcelain.

This piece includes two lids — a fully decorated matching lid and a second perforated inner lid — a feature often found in older Chinese vanity or potpourri jars. The underside bears a hand‑painted Chinese mark, further indicating workshop production rather than later mass‑market export ware.

A charming and collectible accent for bookshelves, vanities, or tabletop styling, offering both beauty and craftsmanship.
