The thick and vitreous nature of the glaze is typical for the first half of the 18th century. The broad rectangular foot is unglazed, thus revealing the dark brown ware.

The crackles on this vase are known as jinsi tiexian (gold thread and iron wire) and were deliberately induced during the cooling process and later highlighted by staining. The glaze and black dressing are conscious imitations of Song-dynasty Ge ware.
Literature: See Catalogue of the International Exhibition of Chinese Art, 1935–6, no. 876, in the collection of Sir Percival David. For related Yongzheng examples, see Catalog of the Special Exhibition of K’ang-hsi, Yung-cheng and Ch’ien-lung Porcelain Ware from the Ch’ing Dynasty in the National Palace Museum, no. 63; Lam, Ethereal Elegance: Porcelain Vases of the Imperial Qing, The Huaihaitang Collection, no. 39, pp. 160–1; and Tie, The Complete Collection of Porcelain of Jiangxi Province: Porcelain of the Qing Dynasty (I), p. 113. Note also the Catalogue of a Special Exhibition of Ch’ing Dynasty Monochrome Porcelains in the National Palace Museum, no. 80, for a Guan-glazed example; and Xu, Treasures in the Royalty: The Official Kiln Porcelain of the Qing Dynasty, p. 205, for a rust-glazed version.
