This flat-walled gourd has the characteristic "moon gourd" shape (baoyueping 抱月瓶, sometimes written 宝月瓶), with a narrow neck connected to the main body of the piece by two symmetrically arranged, scroll-like handles. On the surface of the central part stands out a medallion in slight relief. The foot is rectangular in shape, blackened on the base, framing the Da Qing Yongzheng nianzhi 大清雍正年製 ("made in the Yongzheng era of the Great Qing") mark, painted in archaic cobalt blue characters under glaze. The glaze of this piece has a bluish-green color tending to gray, with a crack covering the entire surface, which varies in size and intensity in different parts of the object. The appearance of this glaze, rarely used for pieces of this form, as well as that of the foot, called "iron foot" (tiezu 铁足), are closely inspired by Guan ceramics produced during the Song Dynasty, which were among the most prized ceramics.
The shape originates from gourds made of metal in the Islamic world in much earlier times, where they could show the surface bulging on one side and flat on the other. An example of this type is a piece in the Freer & Sackler Gallery of Art in Washington (Fig. 1a): it is a Syrian or Iraqi production of the Ayyubid period (1174-1193), measuring 42.5 cm. The first Chinese porcelains imitating this shape were produced in the early Ming dynasty during the Yongle era (1402-1424), as shown by a blue and white porcelain example, also preserved at the Freer & Sackler Gallery (Fig. 1b). Numerous variations of the flat-walled gourd appeared in subsequent reigns; the present version is recurrent in the eighteenth century, particularly in the Yongzheng era.
A rare, closely related example of this gourd, featuring the eight trigrams (bagua 八卦) in relief around the central medallion depicting the taijitu 太极图, is preserved in the Palace Museum in Beijing (Fig. 2). Examples of the same form produced in the Yongzheng era may exhibit different decorative techniques: a similar piece, but with a Ge-type cover, was sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong on April 6, 2016 (lot 3017). Another similar piece, with ruyi heads in place of trigrams, was sold at Woolley & Wallis on December 7, 2020 (lot 121). Two other porcelains with eight trigrams, one with Jun glaze and the other with Ru glaze were sold at Bonhams Hong Kong on December 3, 2015 (lot 1 and 7). The same form could also be made in porcelain with underglaze cobalt blue decoration, as on a piece in the Idemitsu Museum [Sekai Toji Zenshu / Catalogue of World's Ceramics, Tokyo, 1983, vol. 15, fig. 151]. Finally, the Palace Museum in Beijing holds a yellow monochrome piece with incised lotus decoration (故00156831), dated to the Qianlong era (1735-1796).
The 18th century in China represents a period of appreciation for the art and culture of the older dynasties. The objects of the earlier dynasties, including the ceramics of the great kilns of the Song Dynasty, such as those of Jun and Guan, were greatly admired by Emperor Yongzheng. During his reign the production of Jingdezhen, under the supervision of Tang Ying (1682-1756), was particularly influenced by these historical productions. The emperor also commissioned portraits depicting him in the style of a scholar, surrounded by imperial scrolls, bronzes or ancient ceramics. In a painting depicting Emperor Yongzheng reading by the fire (Weilu guan shuye 围炉观书页), a straight-necked bottle bearing a cracked Guan cover appears in one of the bookshelves on the back of the room (Fig. 3).
At the intersection of the heritage of Ming forms of Islamic origin and the traditional ceramic culture of the Song Dynasty, this object conveys the refined taste of the Yongzheng court and the high technical level of the Jingdezhen kilns during the 18th century.
