拍品专文

Imperial yellow glass was a staple at the Imperial glassworks from the late Kangxi period onwards, being mentioned as early as 1702 in contemporary sources. Several varieties of yellow were used simultaneously. This is an example of the deep, rich, egg-yolk colour.

Zhao Ruzheng in Jian Bian Bi Yan Hu illustrates a very similar yellow glass flattened rounded bottle, p. 35, no. 19. Compare the two glass bottles in the Palace Museum, Beijing, of similar yellow colour, but of different shapes, illustrated in The Complete Collection of the Palace Museum - Snuff Bottles, vol. 47, Hong Kong, 2003, pp. 67-8, nos. 105-6.
