清雍正 仿官釉雙耳漢壺尊 《大清雍正年製》款

sturdily and robustly potted after archaic bronze prototypes, the flattened pear-shaped body rising from a splayed foot to a waisted neck and everted rim, the neck flanked by a pair of handles suspending a mock ring and seemingly tasselled wan motif, the body moulded with wide sunken panels and raised bands forming a stylised strapwork, evenly applied overall save for the unglazed footring with a pale greyish-blue glaze suffused with fine beige crackles, the footring with two apertures on the shorter ends, the base inscribed with an underglaze-blue six-character seal mark

本品施仿官釉，釉面潤澤且密佈網狀開片，精細迷人，顯雍正帝慕古之情愫。自雍正元年，世宗命製之瓷器以單色釉為多，胎體優美，造型素雅，通體施釉，器表光素無紋。雍正年間，此清雅製瓷風格，始終落實於唐英督管之景德鎮御窰廠。唐英致力探究宋朝名瓷之釉以仿之，如官窰、哥窰、汝窰及鈞窰。恰如本品，全器通施仿官釉。然其造型有別於宋器，既繼宋瓷之衣缽，古趣盎然，亦有所創新，別出心裁。

與本品相似仿官器，兩側多飾龍耳，於台北國立故宮博物院可見一例，曾展於《清代單色釉瓷器特展》，國立故宮博物院，台北，1981年，圖版82。南京博物院另藏兩例，錄於《中國清代官窰瓷器》，上海，2003年，圖版194及195。香港徐氏藝術館亦存一瓶例，載於《徐氏藝術館陶瓷IV．清代》，香港，1991年，圖版21。另可參考一尺寸較大之例，屬 Caroline B. Carter 雅藏，售於紐約蘇富比1993年11月29日，編號264。再可比較一例，售於香港蘇富比1982年11月9日，編號227。

本品之器型，亦見施茶葉末釉例。兩例曾售於香港蘇富比，其一為趙從衍典藏，兩度舉錘，分別為1979年11月29日，編號321及1987年5月19日，編號295；其二售於1983年5月11日，編號141。另見一茶葉末釉例，無款，售於東京佳士得1981年2月15日，編號318。

此器型源自西周青銅壺，可參一青銅帶紋雙環耳壺例，售於倫敦蘇富比1975年12月9日，編號7；另參一青銅獸耳壺例，出土於山東省，刊於《文物》，1972年，編號5，圖版6，圖2。
