This is a vintage Satsuki Japan porcelain ginger jar or urn, black with a beautiful peacocks and flowers motif. It is a large jar, standing 12" tall with the lid on; it measures a little over 6" wide at the widest part, and the base is 4.5" in diameter. Solid black and painted with metallic gold along with blue, red and green. My photos really don't do it justice at all (shiny stuff is just really hard for me). I tried to show it from slightly different angles to capture the design without reflections interfering, but I'm afraid I didn't do very well. Hopefully you can get an idea and understand that it's so much prettier in person. Condition is absolutely excellent, no issues. It's truly a lovely piece, and a rare find in this large size. Asking $26.00 obo. Everything I have listed for sale is "or best offer", so feel free to make an offer. ~~~~~ ALL ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR LOCAL PICKUP. I sell a huge variety of stuff to supplement my income and help me put the last of my kids through college. Some items come from flea markets or estate sales, and some come from around our home, but many items come to me from my extended family of hardcore hoarders. So, the variety really can be vast and unpredictable. Please check back often, because you really never know what I will have from one day to the next! Thanks for visiting and have a great day!
