拍品专文

This bottle belongs to a group of cloisonne enamel bottles, some with only partial inlay of enamels, of similar design, and many different color combinations, which are now considered to be the Imperial output of the Palace workshops from the mid- to late- eighteenth century. Comparable cloisonne enamel bottles include one illustrated by Helmut Brinker and Albert Lutz, Chinese Cloisonne: The Pierre Uldry Collection, no. 364; one illustrated by Pamela Friedman, Chinese Snuff Bottles from the Pamela R. Lessing Friedman Collection, p. 128, no. 104; and another by Hugh Moss, Snuff Bottles of China, no. 272.
