This vase appears to be a facetted variation of the more usually seen plain bottle vase with globular body and tall, cylindrical neck, such as the transparent blue example of larger size (37.8 cm.), dated to the second half of the 18th century, illustrated by C. Brown and D. Rabiner, The Robert H. Clague Collection: Chinese Glass of the Qing Dynasty, 1644-1911, Phoenix Art Museum, 1987, no. 11. A pair of transparent red facetted vases, with Yongzheng marks, is illustrated by C. Brown and D. Rabiner, Clear as Crystal, Red as Flame, China Institute in America, New York, 1990, no. 19.
