designs on gilt-decorated black lacquer of

example a rectangular box with embossed
lacquer designs of roundels and floral
motifs, mid Qing dynasty, in the Qing Court
Collection, illustrated in Lacquer Wares of the

Treasures of the Palace Museum, Shanghai,
2006, p.197, no.148. See also a red lacquer
case with design of roundels in the Qing
Court Collection, mid Qing dynasty, illustrated
in ibid., p.76, no.52. The design of roundels
on lacquer may have been influenced by
Japanese lacquer and design.
