Many Yongzheng-period doucai-enameled wares were made to emulate
Chenghua doucai prototypes, as is the case with the present pair of
elegantly decorated bowls. A similar floral design to that seen on this
pair, with 'pomegranate-shaped' pistil, can be found on a Chenghua-
period iron-red and blue and white cup in the National Palace Museum,
Taipei, illustrated in Catalogue of the Special Exhibition of Ch’eng-Hua
Porcelain Wares, Taipei, 2003, p. 78, no. 54.
Yongzheng-period doucai bowls of this design are considerably rare.
A Yongzheng doucai bowl of this design is in the Jingdezen Ceramic
Museum and illustrated in Jiangxi cangci quanji – Qingdai, vol. 1,
Beijing, 2005, p. 161, fig. 2, and a pair from The Baofang Pavillion
