It has taken twenty six years but I did find another -- not a twin but a blue and white ginger jar that's approximately the same size as the original.
It was a HomeGoods purchase and cost far less than the original. Shamefully, less.
The mantle, I feel, looks good "bookended" by the ginger jars. I can remove the lids and put autumn leaves or spring forsythia in them if I want some color on the mantle.
I am a patient woman and it really doesn't seem all that long ago that the I received the first ginger jar . . . but it was -- 26 years and that is a long time!
But it was definitely worth the wait!
It's not a total metamorphsis, but the mantle at Linderhof was definitely changed by the addition of the "twin" ginger jar.
Please join Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for this Met Monday and see what other transformations there are on this Monday!

I think it is wonderful that you were able to find a second one! It completes the look on the mantel in a beautiful way. Definitely worth the wait!

They coordinate nicely.
P.S. You're a patient woman! lol!
I'm glad you were able to find a ginger jar to compliment your original one. I think I like that it's not an idential match.
Love the look and you wouldn't want one exactly the same - that would be too matchy matchy !

I love symmetry too! Lucky you..just perfect.
I love the pair together! Congratulations on finding a mate for your lovely ginger jar.
I love both of your wonderful ginger jars and I so agree, the mantel looks fabulous with the pair. What a thrill to find one that goes so well with your first one. Hugs, Marty
They look great together.
I already love ginger jars, so when you have two, all the better, they look great...
You are a patient woman-but you know what you want! They look perfect together!

It looks wonderful on the mantle with its twin. Patience pays!
Nice set...I don't know if I could wait that long :-)
The years do go by far too quickly. Blessings to you and thank for sharing.
Wow, I do love that look!! love your mantle and mantel area--put both spelling in there and spell check says they are correct?!
