AN IMPERIAL BEIJING ENAMEL CUP STAND, KANGXI YUZHI MARK AND OF THE PERIOD (1662-1722)China, c. 1700-1722. Of sixteen-lobed form, the body of heavily cast copper alloy and with the rims finely gilt. Exquisitely painted in bright enamels, the interior with eight phoenixes radiating from the central raised stand with kuilong decoration against a yellow ground. The central recessed ring, added to support a cup, with a half-open peony bloom and furled petals against a turquoise ground, the base similarly painted with radiating and overlapping flower petals, centered by a roundel enclosing a red-enameled four-character mark Kangxi yuzhi and of the period.Provenance: By repute from an old estate in London, United Kingdom. English trade, acquired from the above. Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age, presenting remarkably well with crisp colors and a subtle luster overall. Old wear and a dense crackling to the enamels, as well as minor warping, dents and nicks to the metal fittings, exactly as expected from this type of ware. Small areas of verdigris, the inner edges and corners of the well with minor yet distinct areas of calcification, indicating the piece may have been used as a jardiniere for some time. Obvious nicks and losses, no restoration or repair of any kind.Weight: 744.3 g Dimensions: Diameter 21.6 cmThe sides painted on the interior with petals against a turquoise ground and on the exterior with colorful kuilong against a yellow ground, the galleried rim with blue foliate scroll against a white ground.The rich color palette and the delicacy of the multi-colored design employed to decorate this exquisite cup stand demonstrate the superb craftsmanship of the Imperial Palace Workshops in Beijing, the Zaobanchu, and the extraordinary skill of their painters. The technique of enameling on metal was originally introduced to the Chinese craftsmen in the Guangzhou area by French Jesuit missionaries in 1684, following the lifting of restrictions at Chinese ports. Being a port city, these artisans were the first to be exposed to wares from Europe and initially developed the skills to replicate these imports. Enamored with the range of vivid and pastel tones of both the imported and tributary wares, the Kangxi Emperor recruited enamel artisans from Guangzhou and Jesuit missionaries to work in the Palace and advance the proficiency of the Enamel Workshops. Painted enamel thus became a defining art form of this period, in quality, innovation, and unsurpassed opulence.The appearance of Kangxi yuzhi marks - unframed, inside double circles, as in the case of the current cup stand - on a number of the surviving examples provides an indication of the Emperor's close personal attachment to these pieces. This exquisitely decorated cup stand can probably be dated to the latter years of the Kangxi reign, possibly to the period AD 1700-22, since a fully developed enamel palette has been used to great effect in its painted decoration on a yellow ground, which is found on the majority of enameled metal vessels from this era. The delicately-painted phoenixes are rendered in both pink and blue enamels, of types which were not successfully prepared in the imperial ateliers until around 1700. In fact, this lot can be seen as a celebration of these newly invented enamel colors and the way they could be used to create painterly, but at the same time jewel-like, decoration. A related palette can be found on a small white-ground lobed box, also with a Kangxi yuzhi mark, in the collection of the National Palace Museum, Taipei (see Enamel Ware in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Taipei, 1999, page 172, no. 82), which also bears a blue Kangxi yuzhi mark. The painting on the current lot is, however, executed with even greater sophistication.Literature comparison: Compare a Beijing enamel plate, also of sixteen-lobed form, with a Kangxi yuzhi mark, and painted with the same design, in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, image number K1E000374N000000000PBA.Also compare an almost exact reproduction of the present cup stand commissioned by the Qianlong Emperor, 22.5 cm diameter, with an enameled four-character Qianlong mark and of the period, from the Qing Court collection and still in Beijing, illustrated in Metal-bodied Enamel Ware: The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Hong Kong, 2001, pages 212-213, no. 203. The fact that only a few details were slightly reinterpreted to suit the Qianlong Emperor's taste speaks for the timeless beauty of the present cup stand. Furthermore, compare with entry I-15 in Garland of Treasures: Masterpieces of Precious Crafts in the Museum Collection.
