This exquisite pair of Early 19th Century Rose Medallion porcelain temple jars are truly outstanding. The pair is quite large, more than two feet tall and a foot wide, in perfect condition, and the color is incredibly vibrant, an extremely rare combination to find in a piece of this age. The pair is heavily painted in the classic rose medallion style. The scroll work is accented by flowers, birds, and insects to create a border around the panels which depict scenes of community and nature. In our four generations of collecting, we have never come across a pair as pristine and exquisite as this.
