拍品資料及來源

A number of imperial features here encourage an attribution to the imperial glassworks. The compressed sphere with circular panels of decoration is among the most popular place combinations of form and design, extending back to the painted enamel-on-metal bottles of the Kangxi period. The mask handles also are typically courtly, and the upper neck rim a feature that appears on a number of glass overlays datable to the Qianlong period.

This bottle gives the impression of being a little more effete than the powerful carvings typical of similar works. It may be a little later than them and perhaps belongs to the mid- to late-Qianlong period, although this may be suggested by no more than the rather formal subject matter and smaller scale of the detail.
