Qilin, Chinese mythical creatures symbolizing magnificence, joy and benevolence, dominate the decoration of this hand-painted porcelain scroll jar. This jar was once relied upon to hold a scholar's painting scrolls. The striking cobalt blue pigment used in this Chinese blue and white vase originated in Iran and was likely introduced to China in the 14th century by Arab traders.
