This elegant bowl represents the pinnacle of imperial glassmaking in 19th-century China, crafted at the Imperial Glass Workshop (established 1696 within the Forbidden City). Fashioned from rich, translucent sapphire-blue glass (resembling precious lapis lazuli), it features a gently flared body, a thin rim, and a distinctively carved dark glass base with openwork decorative motifs—blending European technical expertise (introduced by Jesuit artisans) with traditional Chinese craftsmanship.Dia:1.82''(5cm). Height:1.38''(3.5cm)Provided by the Zhang family, a Chinese collector family in California, USA.
