拍品資料及來源

本品類洗,製之不易,匠需工精,玉必大材,方可做得佳器。至乾隆一朝,良玉精料資源極豐,御作匠師工藝嫻熟,遂此類洗尤為流行。整體觀之,此品類洗紋樣雕飾各異,但均寓吉祥,常作婚慶賀禮,意祝連理之美。洗之雙耳,式樣繁多,或作花蝶一對,比翼雙飛。回觀本品,耳雕雙蝠,取「雙福」之意。

本品玉洗,隸書《乾隆年製》四字款。同式款識可見清宮舊藏御用品器。見一碧玉筆筒例,錄《故宮博物院藏文物珍品全集:玉器(下)》,香港,1995年,圖版168。另見一白玉例,載《中國玉器全集》,卷6,石家莊,1993年,圖版351及352。

僅觀其玉,可斷其代,應屬乾隆帝西征准噶尔,克復和闐及莎車之後。乾隆早期玉材稀小,以至高宗數作御詩,詠嘆其憾。然自乾隆平定新疆各部始,至此其地所產良玉歲歲朝貢,源源不絕。
