拍品資料及來源

此對玉盌胎體透薄,花團錦簇,朵花式足,體現了乾隆朝下半葉莫臥兒帝國所進貢痕都斯坦玉器的特質。痕都斯坦玉器深得乾隆皇帝的青睞,並在內務府設立作坊仿製,與中國傳統文化相結合,製造出此類「西番作」玉器。

可作比較而紋飾相近的錄有數例。一例稍大1988年6月6日於倫敦佳士得拍賣,編號19;另一對為趙從衍舊藏,先後兩次在紐約蘇富比拍賣,近期一次為2008年3月19日,編號13;一件尺寸稍小,多層花瓣足,為寶格麗舊藏,1999年6月5日於倫敦佳士得拍賣,編號170;一件傳為奧斯曼帝國進貢予清廷,紋飾相似,現藏台北國立故宮博物院,曾展於《國色天香 : 伊斯蘭玉器》,國立故宮博物院,台北,2007年,編號220。
