Small And Large Ginger Jars With Lids

We love collecting things and decoration pieces; with many options, it is hard to choose which accessories to go for without cluttering our home. We have a soft spot for ginger jars, which are lovely and versatile decoration pieces.

The history of the ginger jar reaches back to the Ming Dynasty when these jars were used for storing and transporting ginger (obviously), herbs, salt, or flour. Everyone has probably seen the classic design with the blue and white Chinese typography and symbols. While ginger jars lost their purpose a while ago, they became lovely decoration pieces.

The classic scheme of the ginger jar is still in style, but we love the modern approaches with contemporary patterns and stylish shapes. They come in unexpected colours and are used to achieve a transitional look that combines a modern style with a traditional feel.

Let’s look at how to use ginger jars as a beautiful yet functional addition to our home decor. They offer many possibilities: fantastic statement pieces that look lovely to decorate bookshelves, window sills, or fireplaces. Our favourite is to use ginger jars as unique vases to hold flower bouquets.

Ginger jars are pretty, subtle decorations if you place one of them. Several ginger jars can be grouped for a significant wow effect. The combination of different patterns, heights, and additional items creates an amazing focal point in the room. But don’t forget the practicality of these jars: they make perfect containers for small items and of course, food like cookies or biscuits.

We cannot deny the popularity of ginger jars. With so many options to choose from, it is very easy to choose the perfect option to fit your existing decor.
