Antique Chinese GINGER JAR VASE Green Floral PAINTING & COLORS
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:46739 | Color: Green |
For sale is a very charming and beautifully painted antique Chinese Ginger Jar / Vase which what I believe is the original pewter lid. Purchased from a wealthy collector in San Francisco about 30 years ago, I have had this on my other Chinese antique — a cabinet — and admire it every day. However, I’m getting to be an antique myself so this piece is being put up for sale.
Details and Approximate Measurements:Top of lid to base: 9 1/2 inchesDiameter across vase girth: 8 1/5 in...chesFrom inside bottom to opening lip: 7 1/2 inchesBase has chip (see photos) but it’s so old that it’s just part of the overall charm. Doesn’t effect stability at all.Tiny green paint chip (about half the size of a small kernel of corn) beneath the butterfly on shoulder of jar. Beautiful yummy green background color. All colors are luscious and vivid but not garish at all. Production air bubble pops. Can’t really see inside.The lid is not dented: fits beautifully. You can see a slight paint ridge where the lid has been accustomed to resting on Jar.Clean.This comes from a non-smoker with no pets. Due to its age and weight (it’s heavy, not thinly made), and its need to be well packaged and double-boxed, the shipping will be a bit higher than we’d all like. Bear with me as I spent $400 on it in the 1980s so whatever you’re paying it a very good deal.GLOBAL SHIPPING is acceptable. I need to get more information though.Thank you for looking🌹
