This 19th-century blue-and-white ginger jar is defined by its thin walls, round body, and delicate lid topped with a bud-form handle. Painted with expressive brushwork, the jar is festooned with peony blossoms, emblems of spring time and feminine beauty. Tucked amid the flowers is a resting phoenix, a regal motif in Chinese art that furthers the vase's blessings of beauty, dignity, and good fortune.

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
