The Blue & White Temple Jar Sea Dragon Motif - L is a commanding decorative accent with a classic lidded silhouette. Across the rounded body, deep cobalt-blue sea dragons move through stylized waves, cloudlike forms, and scrolling details on a crisp white ground. A domed lid, dark blue pointed finial, banded neck, and repeating wave border give the design a richly layered look. Measuring 14 inches wide, 14 inches deep, and 29 inches high, this large jar is suited to a substantial entry console, dining room sideboard, or low display pedestal. Use it as a single statement piece, or coordinate it with other blue-and-white decor while allowing enough open space for the detailed motif to remain visible. Its balanced baluster shape works especially well in traditional, chinoiserie-inspired, and collected 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.
