With a similar shape to the baluster jar, Chinese porcelain ginger jars have a rounded form, with broad shoulders tapering to the base and a narrowed neck topped by a domed lid. The unusual name comes from the export market, wherein salt and spices such as ground ginger travelled West in lidded storage vessels.

Chinese ginger jars were originally made as utilitarian vessels used to store various herbs and spices. Today, they are almost exclusively decorative objects.

Chinese ginger jars are defined by their round, compact shape, wide mouth, short neck, and fitted cover.

A Chinese ginger jar should be fairly compact in size, with a rounded, globular or ovoid body, high shoulders, a wide circular mouth, short neck, and a fitted cover.
