AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a classic Chinese blue-and-white porcelain ginger jar, dating from the Kangxi period of the Qing dynasty.

The jar is decorated with the popular 'plum blossom on cracked ice' motif, with white plum blossoms contrasting against a vivid cobalt blue background with lines that resemble cracked ice.

This design symbolizes the coming of spring when the ice begins to melt, a metaphor for renewal and the end of winter.

The unglazed foot rim and the double blue circle mark on the base are characteristic of high-quality Kangxi porcelain.

In excellent condition, small chip on the lid, see last photo.

Height 6 cm

The item will be packed with the utmost care and shipped with tracking.
