The Blue And White Medium Fish Lotus Temple Jar presents a richly detailed decorative focal point in a classic lidded silhouette. Layered blue artwork depicts a prominent fish surrounded by lotus leaves, blossoms, scrolling stems and water-inspired details against a white ground. Floral borders and a coordinated domed lid complete the balanced design. Measuring 17 inches high, 10 inches wide and 10 inches deep, the jar has enough presence for a console table, dining room credenza or living room mantel without overwhelming the surface. Display it alone to highlight the intricate motif, or pair it with other blue-and-white accents for a collected arrangement. Its rounded shoulders, gently tapered body and crisp palette complement traditional, chinoiserie-inspired and transitional interiors.

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.
