拍品資料及來源

此仿古出戟壺,極為罕稀,僅見吉美國立亞洲藝術博物館藏一例,可與此成對,乃 Ernest Grandidier 舊藏,但其原座已失,藏品編號G3274。此壺身浮雕施金醬彩,熠熠迷人,仿傚高古青銅器,配瓷胎仿漆座,更顯珍稀。雍正一朝,景德鎮御窰廠始燒造各式像生瓷,以瓷釉模擬不同材質,彰顯當時造瓷技術之潛力與突破,此類器物尤其得乾隆帝之歡心,其中以仿銅瓷最受青睞。清高宗蒐集商周青銅禮器,據古物御製仿器,以瓷代銅,模擬青銅器器形及複層紋飾。仿古青銅瓷器多施紫金釉或茶葉末釉,飾以描金,或加綠彩傚擬銅銹,但以爐鈞釉地仿古青銅者,甚為罕見。

北京故宮博物院藏仿古尊,通體施茶葉末釉,上飾爐鈞釉帶狀細邊,可資比對,刊於《故宮珍藏康雍乾瓷器圖錄》,香港,1989年,頁412,圖版93,同錄還有仿青銅觚及鐘,頁414f,圖版95、96。另一件仿青銅觚,載於周麗麗,《上海博物館藏品研究大系:清代雍正-宣統官窰瓷器》,上海,2014年,圖版3-65。

此壺瓷座,以黑地描金,妙仿蒔繪。清初仿日本蒔繪漆器,北京故宮博物院有例,見一瓜果紋套盒,乃清宮舊藏,展於《盛世華章》,英國皇家藝術學院,倫敦,2005年,編號176。

台北國立故宮博物院藏一件古銅釉描金壽字方壺,展出於《乾隆皇帝的文化大業》,國立故宮博物院,台北,2002年,編號V-9,其中央爐鈞釉上劃雷紋與此壺所飾尤為相近,同書另載爐鈞釉描金仿古銅雙耳香爐,編號V-7。此件拍品的仿漆描金座,可比較乾隆古銅釉雲蝠轉心瓶,出處同上,編號V-8。另參考一件相類爐鈞釉地金醬彩浮雕夔龍拱福仿古銅式雙耳瓶,曾為放山居艾弗瑞 · 莫里森(1821-1897年)、洛赫爵士(1827-1900年)及戴潤齋收藏,1971年10月18日售於倫敦佳士得,2010年10月7日再度售於香港蘇富比,編號2128。且見一件仿古青銅罍式雙耳瓶,飾相類夔龍及蕉葉紋,1991年10月1日售於倫敦佳士得,編號809,展出於《Evolution to Perfection. Chinese Ceramics from the Meiyintang Collection》,Sporting d'Hiver,蒙地卡羅,1996年,編號201,錄於康蕊君,《玫茵堂中國陶瓷》,倫敦,1994-2010年,卷2,編號953,後於2011年10月5日香港蘇富比售出,編號19。
