拍品資料及來源

此爵工藝精湛,實屬珍罕,可媲美北京故宮所藏清早期銅爐佳品。其形優雅,源於殷商禮器,款識於現存銅器中更屬少有。所見已出版銅器中,此《大清雍正年製》單行款式,僅見於一桌式銅爐,藏北京故宮,見《故宮經典:明永樂宣德文物圖典》,北京,2012年,頁265,圖版145。

雍正款銅器甚少見諸拍賣。近期僅有兩銅缽式爐例售於香港蘇富比,其中較大一例售於2015年6月1-2日,編號718;較小一例為水松石山房舊藏,售於2014年4月8日,編號203。其餘拍賣售出之雍正款銅器見:Soame Jenyns 藏鼎式熏爐,售於倫敦佳士得2005年7月12日,編號47,及香港佳士得2011年6月1日,編號3619;Ronald Longsdorf 藏鼎式爐,售於紐約佳士得2011年9月15-16日,編號1160;及一簋式爐,售於三藩市邦瀚斯2010年12月13日,編號5146。然以上幾例底部均落雍正六字三行款,不同於此爵及北京故宮藏爐所見單行款。

另一較小乾隆款爵式銅爐,藏於倫敦維多利亞阿爾伯特博物館,錄柯玫瑰,《晚期中國青銅器》,倫敦,1990年,頁33,圖版19。
