Opaque orange glass is probably an attempt to imitate realgar or lacquer. Compare a chrysanthemum-shaped dish in the Charlotte C. and John C. Weber collection, illustrated in Clear as Crystal, Red and Flame: Later Chinese Glass, New York, 1990, no. 32; and a pair of carved vases from the Robert H. Clague collection, illustrated in Chinese Glass of the Qing Dynasty: 1644-1911, Phoenix, 1987, p. 40, no. 40, where the author mentions a waisted jar and a bowl of similar material, formerly from Carl Kempe collection, now in the Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities, Stockholm.
