Enamel Tea Caddy with Flower Basket and Auspicious Phoenix

This enamel-decorated tea caddy with flower basket and auspicious phoenix is collaboratively crafted by Master Zhang Jian, a master artisan of Jingdezhen overglaze decoration and piled‑gold technique, together with several other master craftsmen.


Flower Basket Pattern

The flower basket pattern was extremely popular in the Qing Dynasty.

It symbolizes a hundred flowers in full bloom and great vitality, representing joy, celebration and victory.


Phoenix Pattern

The phoenix pattern is an ancient motif with strong national characteristics, evolved from the ancient bird totem worship.

The male is called feng, the female huang.

In ancient mythology, it is regarded as a beautiful and divine bird that connects heaven, earth and humanity.


Scrolling Pattern

The exterior is decorated with enamel‑painted longevity characters and scrolling lotus, with clear leaf veins.

The branches and leaves twist and curl gracefully, elegant and full of dynamism, with a brilliant color scheme, and the exterior is accented with golden string patterns.

Owing to their continuous, unbroken structure, they symbolize endless vitality — for this reason, the scrolling branch pattern is also known as the Longevity Vine.


Enamel Porcelain

Beyond its elaborate and exquisite painting, this enamel-decorated tea caddy with flower basket and auspicious phoenix requires four separate kiln firings to complete, with the risk of damage in each firing.

In the Qing Dynasty, enamel porcelain was originally made exclusively for the appreciation of emperors and empresses.

Enamel is a special colored pigment produced through artificial firing.

Before the 6th year of the Yongzheng reign (1728), enamel materials had to be imported from Europe.

After that year, the Imperial Workshop of the Qing Court successfully developed more than 20 kinds of enamel pigments on its own.

Enamel porcelain represents the pinnacle of ancient Chinese polychrome porcelain craftsmanship.
