| 65 A rare overlaid glass censer Qianlong mark and period Diameter: 5 1/4 in, 13.5 cm standing on a very slightly spreading ring foot, the depressed globular body rises to a thickened shoulder and a constricted neck and terminates in a flattened rim. The pink glass is overlaid with milky-white and bottle-green glass, carved on the body as gnarled flowering prunus trees growing from rockwork. The base is incised with the four-character mark of the Qianlong Emperor within a square. It is most unusual to find this combination of colours on glass of the 18th century. |
