拍品資料及來源

The carving style relates this bottle to a group of multi-colour single overlays datable to the second half of the Qianlong period (Sale 6, lot 249 is another example). The group is characterised by the use of certain colours—including some rather alarming combinations of bright pink and turquoise blue—the predominance of floral motifs, colours being blended into one another, and a detailed style resulting in a busy, textured surface.

This bottle, the baskets of flowers, and such masterpieces as Sale 4, lot 104 and  Sale 6, lot 249 suggest an imperial connection. Evidence from the archives indicates that several Qing Emperors ordered certain bottles to be repeated. It is possible that the Qianlong emperor ordered this one to test a carver’s skills and, having approved it, ordered more of the same design but without the yuzhi mark. One other bottle, in a private collection in Florida, is almost identical to this but lacks the reign mark and can have come only from the same design/carving team.
