Petite Glazed Pantry Jar

A dark, blue-black glaze coats the angular body of this squat kitchen vessel, spilling over the sides with a subtle iridescence. The petite early 20th-century dish was once used for storing food in a Qing-dynasty kitchen, as evidenced by its interior glaze. Dotted with imperfections, the lustrous dark glaze gives this pantry jar a glassy appearance and drips beautifully over the unfinished round base. We love this petite vessel as a tabletop planter for a succulent or a single orchid.
