With its dark ground and richly colored animal decoration, the Black Hex Lidded Prunus Porcelain Vase Lion Motif creates a strong interior focal point. The porcelain form has a faceted hexagonal profile, rounded shoulders, a tapered base, and a coordinating lid topped with a rounded finial. A prominent lion motif appears amid curling cloud-like forms and botanical accents in gold, green, blue, and earthy tones. Measuring 8 inches wide, 7 inches deep, and 16 inches high, this decorative vase is sized for a console table, sideboard, fireplace mantel, or generously scaled shelf. Display it closed as a standalone accent, or pair it with black, brass-toned, or natural-wood furnishings so the detailed motif remains the focus. Its vertical profile also works well in an entryway arrangement or as one side of a balanced tabletop composition.

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.
