The pair is in overall very good condition. The left bowl has a shallow firing line to the body under the glaze to the outer footring and a tiny stained glaze crackle to the interior.

禎祥疊呈

此對粉彩瓜瓞綿綿五蝠盌珍稀非凡，傳世僅見，唯有一例，與之相類，售於香港佳士得1989年1月17日，編號688，曾為張宗憲所藏，展於《雲海閣》重要中國瓷器．張宗憲珍藏展，倫敦，1993年，編號93。對盌外壁繪葫蘆藤蜿蜒綿連，瓜實纍纍，間綴皎白花朵，五紅蝠展翅翱翔，紋飾設計細緻出色。釉上綠彩深淺變化，展現幼瓜青澀、藤葉翠茵，搭配黃彩濃淡渲染，繪出花柔瓜熟之姿。足上環綴蓮瓣片片，更添雅緻。瓷盌細節巧設精準，呈現雍正御瓷優雅特質。可比較一件乾隆朝同圖紋作例，瓜瓞紋間綴七紅蝠，於香港蘇富比售出，2006年10月8日，編號1127。

雍正一朝，世宗為證繼位正統，篤信禎符，復興祥瑞飾紋，此風延至乾隆時，更是俯拾皆見。世宗也重啟賜賞如意之習，並時命畫師繪其像，畫中置身祥紋瑞飾之間。雍正元年，世宗甫登基，意大利籍傳教士郎世寧獻呈《聚瑞圖》軸，繪瓶花繁茂，瑞蓮並蒂，蓮蓬疊生，一本雙穗，誠禎祥佳兆，寓嘉政盛世，詳見王耀庭，《新視界：郎世寧與清宮西洋風 》， 國立故宮博物院，臺北，2007年，圖版11。

五蝠意喻五福，高壽、康寧、富貴、好德、善終。五蝠紋飾搭配葫蘆紋，象徵福祿壽三喜兼備。足上如意蓮瓣紋，比擬靈芝仙物，更添慶賀之意。

試比較雍正黃地綠彩卷雲十二紅蝠紋盌，飛蝠口銜藍飄帶葫蘆，北京故宮博物院藏一件，錄於《清代御窰瓷器》，卷1（下），北京，2005年，圖版66；另一例出自 Constantinidi 收藏，載於 Soame Jenyns，《Later Chinese Porcelain》，倫敦，1951年，圖版LXIXI；英國鐵路基金會亦藏一盌，1989年5月16日於香港蘇富比售出，編號78。

祥蝠瓜瓞之紋，雍正一朝盛見，如單色釉淺雕瓷器，例可參考一粉青釉盌，先後售於倫敦佳士得 2005年7月15日，編號259，以及香港蘇富比2015年4月7日，編號3602。另見臺北國立故宮博物院藏粉青釉盆，收錄於《故宮清瓷圖錄》，卷1，東京，1980年，圖版149。

圈足上蓮瓣紋樣獨特，或啟思自宋代青瓷。有雍正帶款粉青釉盤，售於倫敦蘇富比2013年5月15日，編號254，器內雕飾蓮花，綻出瓣葉二層，片片疊疊，瓣脈雖缺，然內圈花瓣形貌與此盌上蓮瓣相類 ，可資比較。正如其他雍正瓷作，雖見仿復古風，不無創新之處，迎合世宗高逸品味。
