(5).Footnotes:十九世紀晚期 餐桌中央裝飾銀立盤「恒来」「HC」铸款Provenance: a European private collection來源:歐洲私人收藏Epergne vases were flower holders placed at the centre of a table. This shape probably originated in France during the eighteenth century. Generally made from silver, the most popular designs had a dominant column or a large raised bowl in the centre issuing stylised branches or arms. The present example is made of four horn-shaped openings so it could hold four fresh flowers at the same time. Although the silver may have been imported from China, the design styles of these objects met western functional requirements which were completely different from the living customs of the Chinese.Compare with a related but far less elaborate Chinese silver epergne, late Qing dynasty/Republic period, also made of four horns like the present example, illustrated by S.Kwan, Chinese Export Silver, Hong Kong, 2018, pp.328-329, no.127.
