专家说明

Compare a larger (90.2 cm. wide) fan-shaped lacquer box and cover on a stand, decorated with an identical design but bearing a Yongzheng six-character mark which sold at Christie's New York, 26 March 2003, lot 9. The prototype for the present box, a very similar 16th century late Ming fan-shaped box of the same design, is illustrated by S. Kwan, Chinese Lacquer, Hong Kong, 2010, p. 244, no. 80.

The techniques of qiangjin, incised lines filled with gold, and tianqi, or 'filled-in' coloured lacquer, were often combined during the mid to late Ming dynasty, when they were especially popular. They continued to be used in the Qing dynasty, with many pieces decorated in this way bearing Qianlong marks.
