small jardinières or fower pots. See, for example, the Yonzheng-marked
tea-dust-glazed jardinière and stand sold at Christie’s New York, 20 March
2001, lot 274, and the Yongzheng-marked, red-glazed fower pot and
stand illustrated in Catalog of the Special Exhibition of K’ang-Hsi, Yung-
Cheng and Ch’ien-Lung Porcelain Ware from the Ch’ing Dynasty in the

also, a similar Yongzheng-marked ‘sky-blue’-glazed stand of similar shape
