Colourful Vintage Wucai Ginger Jar, Jingdezhen

About the Item

A colorful vintage ginger jar, crafted in Jingdezhen, China in the 1970s, is a beautiful example of wucai porcelain. Decorated with a vibrant figural scene depicting a mother and child feeding birds in a natural setting. Bold tones of ultramarine blue, verdigris greens, yellows, and reds adorn the piece, showcasing the skillful application of enamels typical of the wucai technique. This method involves painting and decorating the porcelain with enamels after the initial firing, followed by a second firing to set the enamel decoration. Despite being in good condition, the jar exhibits some signs of age, with certain enamel areas showing wear and missing parts.
