Vintage hand-painted ginger jar

A lidded porcelain ginger or temple jar with floral-and-bird decoration and gilt accents, catalogued as hand-painted in an Asian export style. The covered form makes a colorful accent for a cabinet, console or mantel. Maker, origin and measurements are not established in the available record. Review the base and original photographs before assigning a narrower period or factory attribution. Suggested period: Probably late 20th century (approximately 1960–2000); provisional decorative export-ware estimate, pending marks and provenance. Local pickup only at Alice & Elizabeth in The Village.
