Small Green on Cream Porcelain Tea Jar with Bamboo Trellis Design
Chinese designs came to England and her colonies with the tea trade. In the 1760's Virginia's governor ordered "bamboo chairs" for this Williamsburg "palace". Williamsburg cabinetmaker Edmund Dickinson owned a copy of Chippendales Director, the most fashionable furniture pattern book of the 1750's and 1760's. Inspired by these bamboo chairs, this porcelain tea jar celebrates Chippendale in bright meadow green-on-cream porcelain. The jar measures 16"H x 7.5"W x 7.5"D.
