说明：This vessel is attractive for not only its cool celadon glaze which resonances the finest Song (960-1279) prototypes, but also its harmonious proportion and delightful size which appear to be exceedingly rare during the Yongzheng period (1723-35). Water pots of this charming form were intended for use at the scholar’s desk, with the indent on the raised lip purposefully designed for receiving a spoon. The Yongzhen Emperor appears to have been particularly fond of small water pots. According to the Qinggong Neiwufu Zaobanchu dangan / Archival Records from the Qing Imperial Household Department Workshop, water pots of various form were ordered by imperial decree in the seventh year of Yongzheng reign (1729), including a few pieces in ‘winter green’ glaze, which may well refer to the present piece, with a special requirement to have them meticulously made.
Compare two pieces of closely related shape but with a large-scale overall crackle; a guan-type water pot covered with an opaque light blue-green glaze, preserved in the Palace Museum, Beijing (accession no. gu-148531); the other, a guan-type vessel almost identical to the Palace Museum’s piece, formerly in the Meiyintang Collection, illustrated in Regina Krahl, Chinese Ceramics from the Meiyintang Collection, vol. 4 (II), 2010, London, pl. 1799, recently sold at Beijing Poly, 6th June 2017, lot 5002. This rare form continued to be produced in the Qianlong period (17336-95), as evidenced by an example in the Palace Museum, Beijing (accession no. gu-152675), but decorated with formal flower scrolls in yangcai enamels, illustrated in Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong: Qing Porcelain from the Palace Museum Collection, Hong Kong, 1989, p. 370, pl. 51.
此器引人入勝之處，不僅在於其青釉清雅溫潤，遙呼宋代（960-1279）名窰遺風，更在於其比例勻稱，小巧盈握，此等形制於雍正一朝（1723-1735）實屬極為罕見。此類造型精巧之水丞乃文房案頭之物，口沿微凸並帶凹槽，乃特為擱置小勺而設。雍正帝對小巧精緻之水丞似情有獨鍾。據《清宮內務府造辦處檔案》載，雍正七年（1729）曾奉旨燒造各式水丞，當中包括數件「冬青」釉者，或即指本品，並特旨要求製作必須精細。
比較兩件器形相近但通體開大片紋之作：一為北京故宮博物院蓄之仿官釉水丞，罩失透淺青綠釉（藏品編號：故-148531）；另一件仿官釉器與故宮藏品幾近一致，原為玫茵堂舊藏，載於康蕊君，《玫茵堂中國陶瓷》，卷4（II），倫敦，2010年，圖版1799，後售於北京保利2017年6月6日，編號5002。此罕見器形於乾隆一朝（1736-1795）仍有燒造，可參考北京故宮博物院藏一例（藏品編號：故-152675），然其飾以洋彩纏枝花卉紋，載於《故宮珍藏康雍乾瓷器圖錄》，香港，1989年，頁370，圖版51。
