拍品資料及來源
本品畫工細緻入微，反映十八世紀廣州琺瑯畫匠聞名天下之精湛工藝。時至乾隆年間，中國銅、瓷及琉璃胎畫琺琅之製作技藝已臻化境。本品以纏枝花紋作地，開光中飾花鳥蟲石各式畫面，富麗堂皇，盡顯乾隆之奢華品味。旁邊以深藍料飾仿古夔龍紋，色調與上海博物館藏著名八瓣葵花形蓋盒可資比較，見沈之瑜（編），《上海博物館》，紐約，1983年，圖版235、236。另一件八瓣蓋盒同以藍色為主調，上繪細密纏枝花卉紋，為典型廣州琺琅器，刊於《清代廣東貢品》，香港，1987年，圖版49。
此作構圖別出心裁，兩側纏枝花卉上飾仿古夔龍紋，不但絢麗繽紛，又似可作手柄之用，應為仿效古代玉石刻上之龍紋而作。參見一東陵石龍紋板，展於《清代服飾展覽》，台北故宮博物院，台北，1986年，編號226；及倫敦大英博物館藏一玉龍紋帶鉤，載於Jessica Rawson，《Chinese Jade from the Neolithic to the Qing》，倫敦，1995年，頁326，圖6。
相關蓋盒包括一例，繪開光式山水圖，刊於Michael Gillingham，《Chinese Painted Enamels》，牛津，1978年，編號53；另有一五棱葵口多層蓋盒，圓開光中飾各種折枝花卉，同以藍料繪仿古夔龍紋，錄於《故宮博物院藏文物珍品全集：金屬胎琺瑯器》，香港，2002年，圖版210；及二件藍地纏枝花卉紋作例，見同上圖版230、232。
