The shape of the present vase is inspired by ancient archaic bronzes of the Shang (1600-1100 BC) and Zhou (1100-256 BC) dynasties and represents the fashion and taste for archaism during the Qianlong reign. A similarly shaped vase without handles with incised Qianlong mark and of the period was sold at Christie's London, 11 May 2010, lot 110.
