The Vintage Temple Jar Plum Blossom features a classic blue-and-white palette with flowering plum branches arranged across its rounded body. Varied blue tones, delicate linear accents, and softly mottled detailing give the design visual depth, while decorative bands define the neck, lid, and base. A domed lid with a slender finial completes the traditional temple jar silhouette. Measuring 18 inches high, 11 inches wide, and 11 inches deep, it has a substantial presence without overwhelming a tabletop display. Place it on a living room console, dining room sideboard, entryway chest, or generously sized mantel. It also works as a focal point in a built-in bookcase or as part of a collected blue-and-white arrangement. Display alone or pair with coordinating decorative objects, allowing enough surrounding space for the plum blossom motif and sculptural profile to remain clearly visible.

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.
