'Medallion' bowls of this type were very popular in the Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang periods. However, Qianlong-marked 'medallion' bowls seem to be quite rare, with those bearing Jiaqing or Daoguang marks being more common. See, for example, three Daoguang-marked ruby ground medallion bowls with varying scenes, sold in our Hong Kong rooms, 27 November 2007, lots 1769-71.
A Qianlong-marked ruby-ground 'medallion' bowl, although featuring landscape roundels rather than those with precious objects, as on the present bowl, is illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum - Porcelains with Cloisonne Enamel Decoration and Famille Rose Decoration, Hong Kong, 1999, p. 120, no. 104.
