In earlier times, Chinese ginger jars served a broader function, from storing oil to dried herbs. These jars were specifically designed with lids to store valuable spices in a cool, dark place and protect them from spoilage. The association with ginger comes from the fact that these large Chinese jars were used to transport valuable shipments of ginger from China to Europe, giving them their name.
Jingdezhen, often referred to as the "Porcelain Capital" due to its significant role in the domestic and international ceramic industry, is renowned for its centuries-old porcelain production that dates back more than 1,700 years, showcasing traditional craftsmanship and authentic refinement. Each Chinese ginger jar is handmade by skilled artisans, bringing Jingdezhen porcelain to life through ancient techniques, enriched with happiness, prosperity, and harmony – the essence of Chinese culture. Dutch Delft Blue, also known as Delftware, was inspired by Chinese porcelain from Jingdezhen. The secret of Jingdezhen porcelain lies in the purity of the material and the mastery of the delicate firing process, resulting in refined porcelain of the highest quality.
