Chinese Blue and White Porcelain Baluster Jars With Cranes- A Pair

About the Item

Pair of Chinese Blue and White Baluster Chinese Baluster Jars With Cranes. Jars feature rich, cobalt blue backgrounds with white cranes among clouds. They are in the baluster shape with a wide bulbous body and round base. The cranes in flight amidst clouds are symbolic of longevity, immortality, and wisdom in Chinese culture. These jars were often placed in prominent locations in homes or palaces, where they could serve as both artistic expressions and symbolic talismans of good luck and longevity. These jars stand as examples of the enduring beauty of Chinese porcelain and the symbolism embedded in the design.
