The crisp, bright-yellow enamel color, achieved by combining
antimoniate of iron with tin oxide, first appeared on Chinese porcelain
during the late Kangxi period, but reached perfection during the
Yongzheng reign. Because of the difficulty in achieving an even tone
of this bright yellow, cups and dishes of a small size are usually found.
A pair of lemon-yellow dishes of the same size in the Tianminlou
Collection is illustrated in Chinese Porcelain, vol. II, p. 216, nos.
140 and 141, and another pair from the Percival David Foundation,
London, is illustrated by M. Medley in Catalogue of Ming and Ch’ing
Monochrome in the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art, (marks)
London, 1973, nos. B543 and B544. Also, see a pair from the YC Chen
Collection that sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 29 May 2013, lot 1909.
