Product Description
Add historic charm to small spaces in your home with this elegant Blue and White Porcelain Pineapple Bud Vase. This obelisk-shaped "monument" vase features a repeating geometric scalloped lattice pattern that resembles pineapple scales on all four sides. We especially love it filled with daffodil or tulip stems in the spring, or single stems of roses or dahlias in the summer.

Inspiration
This vase is inspired by the chinoiserie style, which European manufacturers developed as a lower-cost export for the American colonies. European manufacturers roughly copied designs from more refined, delicate Chinese originals. The imported pieces were popular in 18th-century Williamsburg, as shown by contemporary newspaper advertisements from merchants selling their wares. Colonial Williamsburg's collections include numerous examples of chinoiserie imports.
