Ginger Jar
The humble ginger jar is an ancient form used for transporting spices and salt in China. They were originally utilitarian shapes and colours used purely as a container, but the West took a liking to the simple form and the jars became desirable in their own right, later becoming more decorative and elaborate.
Famille Verte
Famille Verte is a style of Chinese porcelain decoration that uses a palette of greens.
