           Well proportioned and smoothly polished to a lustrous sheen, white
           jade cups such as the present example highlight the flawless quality
           of translucent stone and the purity of the material. They allow the
           beholder to revel in the natural beauty of the stone and the elegant
           pure form of the cup.

           See a pair of similar white jade cups, Qianlong, in Manchester Art
           Gallery, acc.nos.1934.36-37. Compare also a related white jade wine
           cup, Qianlong mark and period, illustrated in Virtuous Treasures:
           Chinese Jades for the Scholar’s Table, Hong Kong, 2008, p.76, no.26.

           Compare with a similar pair of white jade cups, of the same size and
           form, which was sold at Christie’s New York, 17 March 2017, lot 1102.

           白玉整挖而成,直口直壁,至腹部下方處下斂至圈足。器身線型圓
           潤,光素無紋,彰顯玉材自身之清素雅緻。
