The Barclay Butera Couture Blue & White Porcelain Temple Jar brings a distinctive aquatic motif to a generously scaled decorative form. Its softly rounded body features a detailed koi surrounded by curling water accents, framed by blue ornament along the shoulder and a paneled border at the base. A coordinating domed lid with a rounded finial completes the classic temple jar silhouette. Measuring 22 inches high, 13 inches wide, and 13 inches deep, this large jar has a substantial presence without requiring floor placement. Display it on a wide entry console, dining room sideboard, living room cabinet, or deep built-in shelf with adequate clearance. The layered blue-and-white palette works especially well with coastal, traditional, chinoiserie-inspired, and collected interiors, while the warm detailing on the fish adds visual depth.

Behind the form

It begins in the hands.

Before a piece is painted, its shape gives it character: the shoulder of a jar, the edge of a planter, the balance of a vase. The porcelain traditions behind our collection bring together forming, hand-painted detail, glazing, and firing.

A closer look

Notice how the painted line follows the form, and how the glaze catches the light.

At home with porcelain

A place for the details to live.

We like porcelain best when it feels part of everyday life, not set apart from it. A lamp can warm a reading corner; a jar can hold its own on a console. Blue-and-white pattern feels especially at ease beside wood, linen, and a little open space.

A room note

Give a favorite piece some breathing room, then let its color echo somewhere else nearby.
