Chinese Blue & White Double Happiness Spice Jar

The symbol for double happiness adorns this round tea leaf jar with best wishes for love, companionship and marital bliss. Glazed in the classic blue and white manner, the porcelain jar has a rounded form with a slight taper and is topped by a flat lid, a traditional shape for jars used to hold Chinese tea leaves or herbal medicines. The large characters for double happiness (囍 shuāngxǐ) are painted on all sides of the jar and surrounded by an allover pattern of trailing vines and orchid blossoms. A simple geometric meander pattern borders the unglazed opening at the neck. Each jar is hand-made and varies slightly. Additional Dimensions: Without Lid: 8.5"H Diameter of Opening: 4.5"
