拍品資料及來源
The body of the present bottle is transparent, slightly opalescent, milky glass of a type found in enamelled glass from the Palace workshops.
Blue is one of the more common colours for this group, along with ruby-red (usually appearing pink because of the relatively thin colour being laid over a white ground), and this is not only a standard palace form, but one often repeated in this group.
