Museum Selection Jinli Mug
Description
Reflecting centuries of exquisite Oriental Art and motifs, this contemplative mug captures elements of ancient Japan. Symbols of good luck; koi were a popular motif in Japanese decorative arts, appearing to bring abundance, perseverance and strength. In Japanese legend, if a koi fish succeeded in reaching Dragon Gate on the Yellow River, it would transform into a mighty dragon as a reward for this achievement. This bone china mug has been decorated with a koi fish design inspired by a 19thcentury Japanese woodblock print.
