1750-1820年 御製銀掐絲嵌寶鼻煙壺ProvenanceSotheby's New York, Fine Chinese Jades, Works of Art, and Snuff Bottles, 25 and 26 February 1982, lot 96 來源紐約蘇富比,1982年2月24-25日,拍品編號96This bottle is from a small group of nearly identical bottles likely produced by the Imperial Studios in the late Qianlong/Jiaqing periods. These bottles have an aesthetic of luxury and splendor. The gilt wash, the sparkling glass 'gems', and the bright enamels all combine to endow the bottle with a fancy demeanor. In A Treasury of Chinese Snuff Bottles: The Mary and George Bloch Collection, vol. 6 no. 1121--where the present bottle is also recorded alongside a similar example formerly in the Bloch collection—the thin enameling technique known in Chinese as zantai falang and it's likely Guangzhou origins are eloquently explained.
