The Vintage Temple Jar Plum Lily Pad Motif brings expressive blue-and-white character to a curated interior. Its classic temple jar silhouette features rounded shoulders, a domed lid and a sculptural finial. Layered blue imagery depicting plum blossoms, branches and lily pad elements stands out against a softly weathered cream ground, while tonal variation around the rim and base contributes to its collected look. Offered in Small and Large options, this decorative lidded jar can be selected to suit your styling needs without changing the distinctive design. Display it alone on a console, sideboard or mantel, or place it within a bookcase arrangement alongside art books and complementary objects. It also coordinates naturally with traditional, chinoiserie-inspired and eclectic rooms, whether used as a singular focal piece or combined with other blue-and-white decor.

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.
