Do you love Collier County, Florida’s natural beauty and landmarks? Do you also enjoy Chinoiserie and the story behind the ginger jar?
A ginger jar is a true story of 17th and 18th century entrepreneurship of the early Chinese trade industry with it’s own unique culture that made way into early America and Europe.
In 2022 Hurricane Ian destroyed many famous landmarks that sets Naples Florida apart, and a famous landmark off the 10,000 islands. The Naples pier that is rich in history and has stolen the hearts of many who have walked on it to enjoy the sunset, watch dolphins jump and play, manatees swim slowly along, and watch as people fish and collect shells from the shoreline. As you walk across the boardwalk through the mangroves you will spot an alligator peeking at you. You will always be surrounded by the infamous Sea Grape Bushes and various species of palm trees. The sparkling turquoise blue waters are fun to splash around in or take the local Naple’s sailboat for a champagne cruise. Off Marco Island, by boat you will notice the dome homes signaling that you have reached this area of the islands, and see the many species of protected birds fashion themselves on top of the dome homes. This architecturally absurd home symbolizes the entrepreneurial spirit that lives on in this city. Some call this place home, but most would call it paradise. In Naples, everyone claps during the sunset and this jar will gingerly capture some of these memories that live on in the hearts of the Naples community.
This can be used as a decoration or an ornament. Blown porcelain ginger jar standing at 5 inches tall and 3 inches wide.
