Are ginger jars out of fashion? Particularly the blue and white ones?

@traveler 

 

Not IMO and obviously others, as I see them in a variety of decorating mags and websites.

 

I'm especially drawn to the blue and white!

I was looking at a small square one at Pier 1 but now it is gone. Not much selection now. Probably Christmas space needed.

@emmysmomI agree.  They never go out of style.  Lots of people collect these jars and vases.  I guess some people don't care for them, but I luv them in home decor.

I hope not! We have a lot I bought when I taught in Japan. I also bought a red and white one here from Valerie. Smiley Happy

To me, they are timeless. While they might not be a current 'trend' in home decor (though they likely will be again) they will never be out of style. Trends will come and go but some things will always be considered beautiful.

No, @traveler,  they're a classic.  The most beautiful houses, esp. traditional ones, more often than not, have them.  I think they lend an exalted, ethereal note.  Especially when they are grouped together for maximum impact.

 

I only have two of the ginger jars, (that I got over 25 years ago) but also have a few other Asian blue-and-white items to bolster them with-- they all look good together.
