A striking antique Chinese turquoise-glazed ceramic jar, beautifully adorned with sculpted frogs and lizards in high relief, winding playfully among leafy branches. The vivid crackle glaze showcases a rich, deep blue-green tone, typical of early 20th-century Chinese decorative ceramics.
The jar’s rounded form is both tactile and visually captivating, with charming hand-modeled animal figures that give it a lively, organic character. The glaze pools in the recesses of the design, enhancing the intricate details. The base shows expected wear and firing marks from age, adding to its authenticity.

Good antique condition with age-related crazing, wear to the base, and minor glaze imperfections from firing. No visible cracks or repairs.
Dimensions:
Approx. 16 cm (6.3") diameter x 10 cm (4") height
