Painted Lacquerware Ginger Jar - Summer Flowers Design

A beautiful statement piece for the home, this tall ginger jar combines glossy black lacquer with delicate copper-coloured flecks and a striking handpainted flower in rich shades of red and burnt orange.

Ginger Jars were originally used for storing and transporting herbs and spices in Ancient Asian nations. Now they are highly sought after by interior designers and collectors of unique decor.

The Summer Flowers design is one of Huong Nga Fine Arts’ distinctive handpainted lacquer finishes. Set against the deep black background, the vivid flower and fine scattered detailing create a wonderfully rich, almost luminous effect.

At 30cm high, its elegant tall ginger jar shape makes a striking decorative piece for a console, sideboard, dining table or entrance hall. Display it on its own as a statement piece or style it alongside other pieces from the Summer Flowers lacquerware collection.

Lacquerware Care

To preserve the beauty of your lacquerware:

• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may cause colours to fade or change.
• Do not use chemicals or hot water.
• Do not soak.
• Wipe away dust and moisture with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth.
• Hand wash with mild dishwashing detergent when required.
• Do not put lacquerware in the dishwasher.
• Rinse with warm water and dry immediately.

As each piece is individually handcrafted and painted, slight variations are part of its unique character. Colours may also appear slightly different depending on your screen.
