Tang Yingyan said, "Western colored vessels are a new imitation of Western enamel painting method in our dynasty. They are round and white vessels, painted in five colors, imitating the West, hence the name Western colored vessels. Characters, landscapes, flowers, and feathers are all exquisite and captivating, and the pigments used are the same as enamel." From this, it can be seen that Western colored enamel vessels are integrated with Western patterns. This type of work is known as the "crown of colored porcelain" due to its precious raw materials, complex craftsmanship, and unparalleled beauty. This bottle has a magnificent decoration, with a flowing and pleasing gourd shape. Every detail is meticulously depicted, colorful and conveying auspicious meanings. It is outstanding.
