These 19th-century pots take the form of hexagonal baluster vases with covers, created in the French style in the Japanese Imari palette. Porcelain construction carries an underglaze cobalt blue, orange, and white palette, accented with gold leaf details and enamel finish. The faceted bodies display white reserves filled with hand-painted floral motifs, rising to domed lids topped with sculpted Shishi lion finials, alongside some damages. Each vessel stands 42 cm high. Positioned on a sideboard top, the pair provides a decorative accent suitable for an English country house interior, bringing traditional Japanese Imari design elements into contemporary living spaces. The jars offer visual interest through their contrasting geometric panels and sculptural top elements, functioning as traditional display pieces.

Imari porcelain refers to Japanese export ceramic wares made in the Arita region, historically shipped from the port of Imari. These pieces typically feature characteristic colour schemes of cobalt blue underglaze, overglaze iron red, and gilt highlights with intricate floral patterns.

These jars are moulded or hand-thrown from kaolin porcelain clay, fired at high temperatures with an underglaze cobalt blue wash, and subsequently hand-enamelled with overglaze colours and gold leaf before undergoing secondary lower-temperature kiln firings.

Authentic 19th-century Imari porcelain exhibits subtle hand-painted brushwork, variations in glaze thickness, visible foot rim wear, and dense porcelain bodies rather than lightweight modern ceramic reproductions.

A pair of Imari temple jars adds historical weight and colour to contemporary rooms when displayed symmetrically on a dining room sideboard, flanking a fireplace mantel, or positioned on top of a classic console table.

Clean porcelain jars using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or lukewarm water with mild detergent, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners, scrubbing pads, or submersion, which can strip the delicate overglaze enamel and gilding.
