Gorgeous Ginger Jars

Legend Accents Vintage Dragon Temple Jar

 
This stunning blue and white ginger jar is an impressive 24" tall. I have several Legend Accents' pieces and they are beautiful and look so antique. This is such a classic with its dragon, flaming pearl, and Greek key design. I love the foo dog finial.

Patience & Perserverance

NYBG Garden Pagoda Cream & Sugar Set

 
Back in 2009, I started collecting pieces from the New York Botanical Garden - Lunt Silversmiths Collection filled with fabulous chinoiserie pieces. It was immediately retired and became very collectible. From my post back in 2009 -

"The New York Botanical Garden and Lunt Silversmiths have created a beautiful collection of tableware and decorative accessories inspired by some of the finest examples of botanical art in the Rare Book Collections of the Garden's LuEsther T. Mertz Library. The lovely pieces combine 18th century botanical imagery with a modern sensibility."

Blue & White Chinese Dragon Porcelain

Legend Accents Dragon Tall Jar with Lid

I do know my way around blue and white Chinese porcelain and have never seen anything like this. It looks like a ginger jar atop a stand or column to me. It features a dragon motif.
