Description

Graceful birds nestled amongst flowering branches bring this elegant planter to life, beautifully painted in timeless blue and white. Inspired by the classic huaniao (花鸟) motif, the delicate composition celebrates the changing seasons and the beauty of the natural world. Its gently rounded form makes it equally suited to displaying lush greenery or as a decorative object in its own right.

For centuries, the huaniao (花鸟) motif has been cherished in Chinese decorative art for its celebration of harmony between birds, blossoms and nature. Its enduring beauty has made it one of the most recognisable themes in Chinese porcelain. Framing the decoration, the traditional inscription 大清康熙年制 (Da Qing Kangxi Nian Zhi), meaning “Made during the Kangxi reign of the Great Qing”, pays tribute to one of the most celebrated periods in Chinese porcelain production.

Crafted from the finest porcelain, each planter reflects exceptional craftsmanship and refined design. The softly aged finish lends the piece an authentic handcrafted character. As every planter is individually handcrafted, subtle variations in the decoration and finish ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike.
