It is quite rare to find a monochrome moulded cup stand in this
form from the Yongzheng period. A related example with similar
design, but with six lobed petals and covered with a clair-de-
lune glaze and formerly in the Edward T. Chow and Greenwald
Collections, was sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1 December
2010, lot 2817. See also a related cup stand covered with a blue
glaze with four characters in cobalt blue and dated to the 18th
century illustrated by B. Gyllensvärd, Chinese Ceramics in the
Carl Kempe Collection, Stockholm, 1964, pl. 816.
