AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Chinese turquoise-green glazed Shiwan ginger jars with a distinctive charm and a rich ceramic tradition. This set of three jars and a wine bottle shows beautiful variations in green tones, each with a unique shading that highlights the handmade finish. The glaze has a lively, almost jade-like appearance, typical of Shiwan ceramics. Perfect as decorative focal points in a modern or classical interior, but also beloved by collectors of Oriental art. The subtle differences in color and shape give these jars a playful harmony, while they still clearly come together as a whole.
The condition is good. The rough finish is fitting for the look of this type of ginger jars and contributes to their character.
