The White Temple Jar With Black Peacock Motif offers a crisp monochrome take on a classic decorative form. Delicate black artwork depicts a peacock amid flowering branches and foliage, with additional bird details creating movement across the white ground. A domed lid with a rounded finial complements the jar’s broad shoulders and gently tapered base. Measuring 16 inches high, 11 inches wide, and 11 inches deep, it has a substantial presence without overwhelming surrounding decor. Display it alone on a dining room sideboard, place it on a deep entry console, or use it as a focal point atop a living room cabinet. Its black-and-white palette coordinates easily with neutral interiors, dark wood furnishings, and other nature-inspired accents. Position the jar where its wraparound design can be appreciated from multiple angles.

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.
