白玉英雄雙聯瓶，器形可上溯至西漢青銅器，盡顯乾隆帝慕古之情。西漢青銅雛本為二盃，相聯處鑄鷹踞熊首；參考河北省滿城縣出土一例，刊於 Jessica Rawson，《Chinese Jades. From the Neolithic to the Qing》，倫敦，1995年，頁387，圖4。英雄雙聯瓶再次盛行於宋代，乾隆時已演變為聯姻成婚重要禮器，相聯二瓶象徵新人結合一心。

拍品專文
The shape of this vase is based on the Zhou archaic bronze vessel known as ‘nuptial’ cup, hejinbei, used in ancient times as a ritual wine vessel during the wedding ceremony. The double cylinders were filled with wine to be drunk by the bride and groom as part of the marriage rites, and the decoration of dragon and phoenix on the current vase reinforces the marital theme. Longquan wares of this shape are extremely rare, and no other examples appear to have been published.

CATALOGUE NOTE

‘Champion’ vases gained popularity in the Song dynasty (960-1279), and by the Qianlong reign (1735-96) became an important part of marriage rituals, with the two compartments of the vase symbolizing the union between bride and groom. These later ‘champion’ vases were typically carved in jade. Numerous such vases were produced in the Qianlong period, including a white jade example that sold in our Hong Kong rooms, 5th October 2016, lot 3710.

Longquan wares in this form are extremely rare. Compare, however, a slightly larger example, included in the exhibition Oosterse schatten: 4000 jaar Aziatische Kknst [Oriental Treasures: 4000 Years of Asian Art], Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, 1954. That vase is slightly taller than the present example, and it sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 29th May 2013, lot 2244.
