Invite a piece of timeless elegance and historical grandeur into your garden or home with this magnificent large antique celadon-glazed planter. Standing at a commanding 29.5 inches tall with a substantial 24.5-inch diameter (and a wide opening), its ovoid rounded shape and gracefully tapered base make it a truly stately presence.

This vessel's form is a tribute to the classic Chinese Qing Dynasty style, where large jars like these were essential for storing everything from grains and oils to precious pickles. Often transported as trade goods, these monumental pieces were prized not only for their utility but also for their beautiful, hand-applied glazes. This planter is adorned with a smooth, serene pastel green glaze, which has aged wonderfully over time. Its lovely finish shows a rich patina with minor chips and wear, which are not flaws but rather genuine hallmarks of its long life and history.

The wide opening makes this green planter a perfect home for small trees, large ferns, or sculptural arrangements. Beyond its use as a planter, it stands beautifully as a striking decorative vessel on a grand entryway, a spacious patio, or a quiet sunroom. This is more than just a large pot; it's a beautiful artifact that brings the enduring beauty of Asian craftsmanship and the tranquility of a bygone era to your space.
