Lot Overview

蓋瓶以整塊優質翡翠雕琢而成,質地細膩,色澤溫潤柔和,寶光滿盈。採用高浮雕、鏤雕、陰刻等諸多工藝,技法精絕。分蓋與器身,蓋面隆起,頂端巧留橘紅翡色,雕琢成花形蓋鈕。瓶頸兩側出獸首銜活環,獸面威嚴肅穆,鬃毛捲曲。瓶身修長,腹下漸斂,一側巧將紅翡色雕為梅樹,枝椏間梅花盛開,喜鵲佇足於枝頭,羽翼刻劃清晰,長尾飄逸,有「喜上眉梢」之佳語。另一側保留紅翡俏色,鏤雕纖柔枝葉,葉片舒展擺盪,其上點綴朵朵紅菊,將「翡」與「翠」的色彩設計得恰到好處,增添別緻雅興,使之更為靈動耐看,為清代翡翠玉雕傑作。

翡翠以其深穩凝重、變幻莫測的紅翡、翠綠色和溫潤柔美的特性而廣受喜愛,清代尤其受到以慈禧為代表的統治階層青睞,傳說慈禧寧要翡翠飾物而不要金剛石飾貢品,官員們更投其所好,選上等的翡翠進奉,以求名利,翡翠因而又有「皇家玉」、「玉王」之美稱。
