The Blue And White Longevity Open Top Vase presents a rounded, gently tapered silhouette covered in repeating longevity-symbol medallions. Deep blue linework stands out against a pale ground, while a geometric border circles the short neck for a crisp finishing detail. The broad shoulders and open top give the piece a substantial profile without overwhelming a tabletop. Measuring 11 inches high, 9 inches wide, and 9 inches deep, it works well on a console, sideboard, bookshelf, or dining table. Display it alone to highlight the allover pattern, or style the opening with dried or faux stems suited to the vase’s proportions. Its blue-and-white palette pairs naturally with traditional, chinoiserie-inspired, collected, and transitional interiors. Allow a little breathing room around the vase so its distinctive motifs remain visible from several angles.

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.
