About the Item

Crafted in China circa 1960, this impressive porcelain fishbowl showcases the Imari palette of cobalt blue, iron red, and gilt highlights, a decorative tradition admired for its bold contrasts and fine detail. The exterior panels depict elegant courtly figures in garden and interior scenes, surrounded by floral scrolls, patterned borders, and symbolic motifs including guardian lions and vases. The interior continues the theme of prosperity with a hand-painted orange koi fish swimming among stylized aquatic plants. The vessel rests securely on a carved hardwood stand with scrolled legs and circular stretcher, finished in a natural stained tone that complements the porcelain’s colors. The bowl is fitted with a tall faux tree rising from a real wood trunk, lending dramatic vertical presence and sculptural character to the piece. In excellent condition commensurate with age and use, this decorative jardinière brings bold color, scale, and exotic refinement to any interior, whether displayed in an entryway, solarium, or grand living room.
