The Blue And White Porcelain Dragon Planter With Lion Handle brings bold cobalt decoration to a substantial round form. A sinuous dragon sweeps across the body amid cloud-like details, while a leaf border and stylized waves frame the design. Sculptural lion-mask ring handles accent both sides and enhance its traditional character. Measuring 17 inches high, 17 inches wide, and 17 inches deep, this planter has the presence to anchor a living room corner, entryway, sunroom, or covered interior garden area. Display it directly on the floor, on a sturdy low stand, or beside a console where the detailed pattern can be appreciated. Its blue-and-white palette coordinates naturally with traditional, chinoiserie-inspired, coastal, and collected interiors. When used with a live plant, add an appropriate liner or nursery pot to help protect surrounding surfaces.

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.
