About the Item

A cylindrical blue and white porcelain tea caddy, finely decorated with the traditional “boys at play” motif symbolizing prosperity, fertility, and family harmony in Chinese art. The scene shows children playing among rocks and garden landscapes, rendered in a deep cobalt underglaze. The matching lid is adorned with a scrolling cloud border, creating a harmonious balance between form and decoration. The design and proportions make this piece both a collectible artifact and a decorative accent, suitable for display in traditional and modern interiors alike.
