Tubular porcelain hat stands with openwork decoration appeared during the 清嘉慶ǎ粉彩⒳子山水燈◀瓶ǎ礬紅Ս字篆書款
emperor Jiaqing's reign. In addition to functioning as a hat support, it also
perfumed the hat from incense burned in the interior. A similar example,
also bearing an iron-red Jiaqing mark, illustrated in The Complete Collection
of Treasure of the Palace Museum - 39 - Porcelains with Cloisonné Enamel
Decoration and Famille Rose Decoration, Hong Kong, 1999, p. 193, no. 170.
This hat stand can also be compared with a cylindrical hat stand sold at
Christie's Paris, 6 July 2022, lot 36. Both are decorated with nine five-clawed
dragons chasing the flaming pearl on a yellow background. See, also, a
Jiaqing millefleurs hat-stand of the same form sold at Christie’s Hong Kong,
27 November 2007, lot 1766.
