Imperial Lotus Ginger Jar

The Story

The Imperial Lotus is a classic ginger jar painted in soft green, with white lotus blossoms and scrolling vines covering the body and the domed lid. Thin bands of darker green outline the shoulder and lid.

At 14 inches tall, it stands on its own on a mantel, bookshelf, or console. Green is an easier color to work into most rooms than traditional blue and white.

Design Function

A 14-inch lidded green and white ginger jar that adds pattern and color to a shelf or console.

Mel’s Styling Take

Green is so underused in traditional decor, and this jar makes the case for it. I group it with white ceramics and let it be the one note of color on a neutral shelf. White peonies nearby are perfect.

Pairs Well With

• Green Woven Trellis Jar: a small green trellis jar repeats the color with a geometric pattern.
• Green and White Imperial Empress Vase: a round green and white blossom vase stays in the same palette.
• 21.5 Inch White True Bloom Real Touch Peony Stem: white faux peonies echo the white lotus blossoms.
• The Mirela Bowl: a warm white glazed terracotta bowl adds a plain, handmade texture.
• Josephine Footed Marble Bowl: a footed marble bowl keeps stone in the mix.

Good to Know

• The lid lifts off.
• Handcrafted; size and color vary slightly.
• Use a liner before adding fresh flowers.
• Decorative, indoor use only.
