The form of the present vase is derived from archaic jades of square form, known as cong. The form became popular for monochrome ceramic vases during the Qing dynasty, particularly in the Qianlong reign.
The lavender-tone glaze on the present vessel is particularly rare. A similar example was sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1 June 2016, lot 3339. The shape is more frequently found in the Qianlong period with a dark-blue glaze, such as one illustrated in Ethereal Elegance, Porcelain Vases of the Imperial Qing, The Huaihaitang Collection, Hong Kong, 2003, pp. 118-119, no. 18. Another version of the shape with a crackle glaze was sold at Christie’s London, 7 November 2014, lot 643.
