The present lot is very rare for its size and use of the turquoise glaze;
however, related examples, Yongzheng seal mark and of the period,
from the Qing court collection, exist in other glazes such as teadust,
ru, guan, lazurite-blue, and carved dragon design in light greenish-
blue glaze, illustrated in The Complete Collection of the Treasures of
the Palace Museum: Monochrome Porcelain, Beijing, 1999, pls.135,
195, 206, and 214. See also a turquoise glazed melon-shaped jar,
Yongzheng seal mark and of the period, from the Qing court collection,
illustrated ibid., pl.150.

Compare a ru-type glazed jardinière, Yongzheng seal mark and period,
which was sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1 June 2011, lot 3735.
