《韻夫》款
盃敞口呈圓形，斜直壁，矮圈足。器內光素無紋，外壁腰間淺浮雕仿古夔龍紋一道。盃壁一面飾螭龍成雙，皆浮雕鏤空，其中一螭，頭長獨角，長尾分岔，沿壁上攀，探首盃內；另外一螭，俯身往下，戲擒彼獸之尾。足底內凹，淺雕陽文「韻夫」篆體印章款。表面光澤瑩潤，近於栗色。附木座。
長 9.8 公分，3 7/8 英寸

狀況報告
There was probably at some stage an old shallow flake on the exterior of the mouth rim in front that has been smoothly polished, but overall the cup is in very good condition.

器底雕陽文篆書「韻夫」兩字，語焉未詳，論者甚多，然本款可解作「文士」，或指物主。此器典雅大方，雕工精細入微，選料上乘，犀角色呈淺金蜜，柔和悅目。青銅器自古乃達官貴人收藏上選，故此範銅取古型的角盃，結合瑞獸及仿古紋飾，極受青睞。仿古器宋時盛行，是以相關書冊、圖樣繁多，當中著錄紋飾，後世仿學甚廣，見於不同材質藝作。本器浮雕兩條靈活鮮動的螭龍，交纏成柄。其中較大的螭龍攀於器側，抓著口沿，把頭探進盃內，神態生動。未見與此相類之器著錄於冊，但可舉一例，為犀角浮雕仿古螭龍饕餮紋盃，尺寸略大，乃 Kenyon V. Painter 舊藏，器側飾小螭龍倚壁上爬，大螭龍則攀至盃沿，作擒噬之狀，氣勢磅礡，售於紐約蘇富比2007年9月18日，編號6。此器色澤油潤，包漿亮麗，想必久經摩挲。Jan Chapman 指出，淺金蜜色角雕，幾乎全屬精品，見《中國的犀牛角雕刻藝術》，倫敦，1999年，頁60。

此品以犀角雕瓶，相類之品極其罕見，瓶上鐫物主名號，添文「玉液和墨書留香」，與墨摻犀角末含香驅蟲之說相呼應，使器更顯珍貴幽雅。且提玉液，有云酒為詩侶，詩見酒魂，好詩總伴美酒而來。此瓶尺寸偏小，疑為士人文案硯滴。

明末 犀角光素盃

盃撇口，深腹，淺圈足，通體光素無紋飾。此器掏膛規整，厚壁粗足，有別於清朝薄壁細足的風格，頗具明瓷胎壓手盃的韻味。此盃色澤瑩潤光潔，背面留有黑斑，屬古稱「斑犀」的級別。

此器於1988年購自倫敦。曾於香港藝術館2002至2005年間舉辦《金木水火土：香港文物收藏精品展》中展出。

拍品專文
The form of this cup with its thick sides and broad foot ring is reminiscent of the yashoubei压手杯, which literally means ‘fitting into one’s palm’, of the Ming period. As such it is markedly different to the much thinner walls and narrow foot rims found on Qing dynasty cups which are closer to those made in the ceramic form. It has been noted by the author that this streaked fibrous rhinoceros horn was known as banxi, see T. Fok, Connoisseurship of Rhinoceros Horn Carving in China, 1999, p. 110.

This silver-mounted horn cup has a mermaid, sailing ship, and fish among various plants, blooms, and a garland device scrimshawed in a total surround. A poem is inscribed from what one might deduce to be a sailor to his farmer friend: Around this Horn in sculptured letters see a friendly token Jerrold received from me And when the Harvest toils shall sweat the brow May its Cheering draughts fast speed the plow. Add fresh vigor to the Manly nerves And bring Industry what its toil deserves. The beaker likely dates to the late 18th century or within the first half of the 19th century. It is in fine condition.

Literature
Rhinoceros horn was regarded in the 17th century as an exotic natural substance with powerful amuletic properties. The members of the Princely Courts of Renaissance Europe, notably Rudolf II of Prague, had drinking vessels carved from Rhinoceros horn for its magical ability to detect a poisoned substance and for its power to heal the princely melancholia.
