RARE PAIRE DE BRULE-PARFUM EN EMAUX CLOISONNES
CHINE, DYNASTIE QING, EPOQUE QIANLONG (1736-1795)-JIAQING (1736-1820)
The two censers are cast in mirror image as a striding blue qilin with head turned sharply to the side towards the boy seated on its back. The qilin has its mouth open in a roar, with champleve enamel brows, mane and tufts of the tail. Its back is topped by a saddle-like attachment decorated with multi-coloured ruyi clouds upon which the boy is seated dressed in pink robes with floral scrolls and holding an ingot in his right hand.
14 1/2 in. (37 cm.) long, 11 in. (28 cm.) overall high

專家說明

The theme of boy riding on a qilin provides the rebus qilin songzi, 'may the qilin bring you a son', a common wish for the perpetuation of many generations of sons. A pair of biscuit enamelled examples dated to Kangxi period which probably is a prototype of the present lot, from the Richard Bennett Collection, was sold at Christie's Cowdray Park sale, 13-15 September 2011, lot 447.

A similar censer of this subject formerly in the T.B. Kitson Collection, but with the body of the animal picked out in white rather than turquoise, was sold at Sotheby's London, 7 June 1967, lot 268. Another slightly smaller pair (35 cm. length) was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 2 November 1999, lot 808.
