The form of the present brushwasher was undoubtedly inspired by imperial ceramics of the Song period, particularly censers of lian form such as the Ruyao example from the Percival David Foundation, now in the British Museum, illustrated in Song Ceramics, Objects of Admiration, London, 2003, p. 23, no. 2; and a Geyao censer, illustrated in Porcelain of the Song Dynasty (II), The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Commercial Press, Hong Kong, 1996, p. 54, no. 48.
Compare with other Yongzheng-marked examples but of varying glazes: the first of white glaze with an incised reign mark in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, included in the exhibition, Qingdai Danseyou Ciqi, Monochromes of the Qing Dynasty, Taipei, 1981, p. 115, no. 61 (see fig. 1); a brownish-red glaze example, catalogued as a flower pot stand, is illustrated by J. Ayers, Chinese Ceramics in the Baur Collection, Geneva, 1999, p. 258, no. 258; and a vessel with a greyish-blue Ruyao glaze was sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 12 May 1976, lot 232.
