拍品专文

The present lot is stylistically more elegant than the porcelain examples noted below, and this coupled with the high quality of craftmanship suggests that the bowls were carved by a leading workshop of the period, if indeed they were not produced in the Palace workshop. Compare a group of blue and white bowls with four evenly spaced roundels each enclosing an auspicious character reserved on a ground of lotus meander and Buddist emblems above similar lotus lappet borders around the base. Such an example was sold in these Rooms, 10 June 1991, lot 175; a saucer dish painted in a similar pattern, dated 1786, is illustrated by Sir H. Garner, Oriental Blue and White, p.50, fig.79b. Compare also a famille rose bowl with highly stylised lotus scrolls interspersed between the four medallions, an example of which sold in the Hong Kong Rooms, 8 October 1990, lot 524.
